Did the Middle Finger Emoji Flop?
It's been a couple months since they added new emojis to iOS and with it was the highly anticipated and requested middle finger emoji . Since it was released tho I hardly see anyone use it. Queens ✋ became the emojis I see people frequently use.

I was just thinking about this the other day
One of the cases where you want something bad until you have it, and when you have it you ignore it.

Middle finger is so 90s as a gesture.

It did, I thought it'd be iconic but I'm still yet to even put it in a message.
Unicorn and Turkey, their surprise snatching!

Yes. It's terrible plus it's skin tone colors are off compared to the rest of the emojis.

It's just too in your face, there's no fun in using it.
