TOP tops the set quite literally, an upward arrow sitting above a word that's since taken on a second job as a compliment. Old forums used it for a literal back-to-top link at the bottom of a long page, but its bigger life now is as praise, you're the top, ranking someone or something as simply the best.
What 🔝 means
A black ⬆️ Up Arrow characterized with the word 'TOP' in black capital letters below this short and upward arrow. The 🔝 TOP Arrow emoji indicates going higher, being at the top, or just the 'topside' or the upper side/layer of something.
How and when to use it
- In reality or the physical world, 🔝 suggests the upper side of a package. Hence, if you're referring to this side in a metaphorical or a literal context, you can use this emoji.
- Some examples for the previous use-case: "Truth is, you know a person only after the 🔝 layer fades off" or "In life, nothing's prescribed with the 'topside' or the right side, you've got to figure that out 🔝".
- If you're sharing an inspirational repost or a post of personal empowerment, you can use 🔝. For instance, "She's the perfect example of never backing down! A queen always knows her place 🔝". "I was dragged to the dust, but I'm back at the top! 🔝".
- Similarly, you can use 🔝 even while reminding someone of their place. Like, "Be the bigger person and always know your worth 🔝" or "If you want to compete, compete with yourself 🔝 That makes you badass".
- While sharing sports results, or the results of any competition, including politics, you could use 🔝. For example, "And for the fourth time, incompetence prevails! 🔝".
