Skriinimis

Skriinimis is a term originating from informal online communities, particularly within Finnish-speaking internet culture, referring to the act of sharing or displaying screen content. It is often used in the context of gaming, where players might share their gameplay or stream their sessions. The term can also encompass sharing screenshots of computer interfaces, documents, or any visual information displayed on a screen.

The act of skriinimis can serve various purposes. For gamers, it allows for demonstrating skills, sharing memorable moments, or seeking advice from others. In broader online contexts, it can be used for technical support, collaborative work, or simply to show something interesting or amusing. The term itself is a colloquialism, blending the English word "screen" with a Finnish verbal suffix.
