Rendered by your fonts
The pictures above are this site's own bundled artwork; these are your device's. Each cell below asks your browser for one emoji font by name, so you will see a real difference only for the fonts installed on this device — for the rest your browser falls back to the drawing it already uses. This is what Backhand index pointing left will look like wherever you paste it. If a cell shows an empty box, this device's emoji font has no glyph for it yet; that is the font, not the character.
