What 🐢 means

A turtle with its shell. It means slow, steady and patient.

People send it for slow internet, slow replies, or slow progress that still gets there, as in "slow and steady wins the race." Sea turtle fans and ocean conservation posts use it, and it can describe someone shy enough to hide in their shell.
