IB (Inspired By)

[I·B]

The acronym “IB” is used on social media when someone is inspired by something. People add this acronym in their captions to give credit to someone. It can be influenced by other social media users or related to the user’s life and family. Anything not originally the user’s idea is posted with “IB” in the captions.

Using “IB” is a way to acknowledge the idea’s origin and give credit to the ones who came up with it. This is a good practice among social media users and encourages others to explore further.

Example

For example, you might cook something and give credit to your mother for sharing her recipe with you, or you might delve into a social media trend and mention the person who started it and inspired you.
