While contextually it’s not specifically this, I have a selection I use at work thatmay get the point across.
👌when I really only need to ok or confirm my reading of the thing
🤌well said, great post, stuff like that. Occasionally I get to use it sarcastically when someone bungles up and hits send instead of Backspace.
🎉yay, awesome, any sort of celebratory language, like the ok but with enthusiasm
🧡everyone knows what heart means
🦀this is my little secret. I use it randomly on meaningless posts to sow confusion among my workplace. No one knows what it means, no one understands why I use it, but at the same time no one has been willing to ask me. Sometimes I drop it on a message in a particularly dull part of a teams chat and watch people absent mindedly add crabs to a post because they instinctively click it to show engagement. It’s honestly the little rebellions that make the day move along.

I can’t speak for the modern thing. I understand the gesture as either the beginning of a chef’s kiss or a gesture to hold the attention on what you ar saying.
I think it only means that to Italians. For everyone else it’s a stereotype 😂

I love the crab story.
I would totally click the crab because if i’m in a good mood all it can mean is just someone being playful so it feels like a tiny adventure.
On the other hand, If you ever win huge amounts of money and decide to leave your job flipping everyone off you could also say “and those 🦀 's were a test and you FAILED! sheeple!”?
