does "6" and "w" look the same or what's the difference between them?

W and 6 are the exact same sign. You have to figure based off the context of the sentence whether it’s W or 6. For example if I’m signing my phone number you know I’m signing the 6 but if I was spelling out my name you’ll know it’s a W. This is the first example you’ll learn of different words that share the same sign and have to figure it out based off how it’s used in conversation.

Profile Pictures
Okay so this might not be that big of a deal, but, I wish that they had black people or P.O.C in general as profile pictures for everybody not just when you reach a certain level in the app. Currently my profile pictures of a white girl and I'm not white and, I just wish it was different because on other apps, I can customize my profile picture to any character that resembles me most and even, customize little characters. I just think that when it comes to your ethnicity or race, that shouldn't be something that you have to earn in the app. What do you guys think? 🙏🏾🌻
