What ๐ means
A layered birthday cake with candles. It means 'happy birthday' and any other celebration with cake.
Birthday wishes stack it with ๐, ๐, ๐ and ๐ฅณ. In work chat it marks a teammate's birthday or a work anniversary. It also celebrates milestones like a channel or account birthday.
For a slice of cake that isn't for a birthday, ๐ฐ fits better.
