Poke is an internet slang term that refers to a feature on social media platforms that allows users to send a virtual “poke” to another user. This action is usually meaningless and serves as a way to get someone’s attention or simply acknowledge their presence.

Example 1:

Person A: Hey, I haven’t heard from you in a while! Just wanted to poke you to say hi!
Person B: Haha, thanks for the poke! I’ve been really busy lately, but it’s nice to know you’re thinking of me!

Example 2:

Person A: I saw your funny comment on that post! Couldn’t help but poke you to let you know it made me laugh.
Person B: Glad you liked it! Thanks for the poke, man!
