What 🯁 means
It is one piece of a three-cell pointing hand.
TRS-80 Model III and Model 4 home computers used this graphic. Their character sets—the symbols a computer could show—let people assemble larger pictures from small, cell-sized pieces. Home computers in this wider repertoire date from the mid-1970s to mid-1980s. Unicode retained the pieces for compatibility with older computer text.
Someone sent me 🯁—does it point at me?
No; by itself, it is only part of a graphic.
Read a lone 🯁 as a retro-computing fragment, not a point aimed at you. If the context matters, ask what the sender meant. A font draws this text character, so its outline can vary or it may be missing; the three pieces may not render evenly across devices.
A retro-computing graphic piece; on its own, it can look unfinished.
Alone, 🯁 is not a whole pointing-hand gesture.

1Can 🯁 look different or disappear?
Yes. The font determines its outline, and a font without this character may show a missing-glyph box. There is no emoji artwork layer to provide a standardized drawing.
