h8r
Jealous critical person
H8r is internet slang for hater—someone who expresses negativity, jealousy, or contempt toward others, especially toward people who are successful or popular.
The spelling uses the number 8 to represent the "ate" sound, a common feature of early texting and online communication: Don't listen to the h8rs.
The term peaked in the 2000s and now often appears ironically.
