What π§βπ€βπ§ is made of
This symbol is glued together from several: an invisible joiner sits between them. Software that does not know about the joiner shows the parts separately.

Where the π§βπ€βπ§ emoji is used
The π§βπ€βπ§ 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.
