Meaning and Interpretation
🔉 This basically means 'keep it at a chill level' or 'audio is playing at a normal notch.' It's less intense than the loudspeaker 📢 but not on mute 🔇. It's that sweet spot where the vibe is right—not blasting, but not silent either. Use it when you're listening to tunes at a decent level or telling the chat to use their inside voice.
