Oh no. I know I’ve seen “CVLT” before, but I don’t remember where. Maybe in some other internet context?

"cvlt" is also a common way of spelling "cult" in the heavy metal community to praise something as obscure / for true fans only

I've seen it in the context of Black Metal fandom, which may not be entirely unrelated, now that I think about it...

Maybe I’m remembering some niche computer lingo? I’m almost certain it was pre 2019

It's definitely not a new term. I've heard "trve cvlt" thrown around since at least the mid 2010s.
