Meaning

A hand seen from the back with the index finger pointing to the left. Its job is to direct attention: to something earlier in a sentence, to a person in a photo, or to a link or button placed to the left.

It is common in captions and playful self-references: β€œWho finished the whole pizza? This guy πŸ‘ˆβ€ People also pair it with πŸ‘‰ so that the two index fingers touch, a shy β€œum, so…” gesture used for awkward requests or confessions. Since it points at a spot on the screen, what it targets can change when the text wraps differently on another device.
