What the 🤟🏻 emoji means
Thumb, index and little finger extended. «I love you» in American Sign Language, added to Unicode in 2017.
Easily confused with 🤘, the metal horns, which has the thumb tucked in. The difference is one finger and a completely different message.

Where the 🤟🏻 emoji is used
The 🤟🏻 smiley copies in one tap and pastes into a chat as text, not as a picture: it is a Unicode symbol, so it works the same in WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord and in a post caption. Every platform draws emoji its own way — below you can see how love-you gesture: light skin tone is drawn in the open Noto, OpenMoji and Twemoji sets.
