The 🤞🏿 emote, also known as the "Crossed Fingers: Dark Skin Tone" emote, is a variation of the 🤞 emote with a darker skin tone. It is commonly used to express hope, luck, or a desire for good outcomes, especially in situations where one's success or well-being is uncertain. The dark skin tone variant was introduced in 2016 as part of a Unicode update aimed at promoting diversity and inclusivity in digital communication.
