Such a weird word. Refer to another person as fine and they are attractive; say you’re fine, it means mild of the road. Go out for a fancy meal it is fine dining; tell someone your meal is fine, it means not great but no complaints.
This is weird to me because in my brain this is pretty close to exactly what I was looking for, but because it contains the word bad my brain wants to make it worse than it is if that makes any sense lol
This is my go-to. Fairly neutral, and particularly in person, your inflection can indicate exactly where on the "not bad" scale you are. Plus, it's informal enough and even a little bit flippant, so most people aren't going to pry or feel like you're fishing for them to ask if something's going on.
Going with solid because most of the other replies in my mind, still lean a little bit too much towards the OK end of the spectrum instead of the slightly better than OK. Thanks!
I don't think that fully makes sense, isn't average decidedly not subjective? As in, it's a mathematical concept that you can calculate. Anyway, that's still fine to use it that way if he likes.
And if your statistical averages go up, you're at a higher average than others. And if it goes down, it's lower. Average is subject to inputs. So, a person can say average and not mean normal. Its just a play on words, internet person.
I can see that, to me meh is more of a middle ground, okay (on the scale presented) would be a 6/7 and good is 8-9, I don't think I've had many ten moments but those are in their own category in my mind. I would also rate fair at a 4. 💚 fun how we all have different scales ◡̈
Yeah, if I were to give them all my own numbers I would probably have put OK at 6 rather than 5, and good at 8 rather than 7, and then meh would've been like 5. And to me fair is a bit better than meh, probably similar to OK. You're right, it is fun!

Más o menos ("so-so" in Spanish) proper form is to flip your hand while saying the phrase as well.
Starting with your hand out with your palm facing up then flipping it over so your palm is facing down, then repeat, palm up aaaand back down.
Person: How's it going?
You: "ehh.. 🫴 🫳 más o menos 🫴🫳
Decent?
