What does IMO mean in casual conversations?

[Donte]

I’ve been seeing “IMO” used a lot in comments and messages lately, but I’m not totally sure what it stands for or how it’s supposed to be used. Can someone explain what IMO means and when it’s appropriate to use it?

IMO stands for In My Opinion. In casual conversations, texts, or social media posts, it’s used to share a personal view without sounding too forceful. For example, someone might say, “IMO, that was the best movie of the year,” to show it’s just their perspective, not a fact.
