What does MB mean in text?

[Gunnar]

I’ve seen people use “mb” in text messages and chats, but I’m not completely sure what it stands for. Does it usually mean “my bad,” or can it have other meanings depending on the context? I want to make sure I’m interpreting it correctly when someone sends it to me. Can someone explain what “mb” means in text and how it’s commonly used?

Most of the time “mb” means “my bad,” like a quick way to say sorry- I use it that way myself in chats. Occasionally it can mean megabyte, but in casual texting it’s almost always “my bad.”
