What ๐ฝ means
The middle of the five skin tone modifiers, a warm tan. It joins the emoji before it, as in ๐๐ฝ or ๐ช๐ฝ, to show a medium brown skin color.
People with olive or light brown skin often use it as their personal tone. Some people also choose it as a neutral middle option when the yellow default feels off to them.
On its own, the modifier shows only a colored square.
