The "hiii" emote features a close-up of a face with a yellow pixelated waving hand. This emote is primarily used as a friendly greeting in Twitch chat. The waving hand and facial expression combine to create a playful, enthusiastic way of saying hello to streamers or other chatters. The emote conveys a sense of friendliness and excitement, making it perfect for welcoming new viewers or greeting returning community members.
The "hiii" emote is available on 7TV, a third-party emote platform that extends Twitch's native emote capabilities. While there are several variants of this emote on 7TV (with ID references like 65413498dc0468e8c1fbcdc6), they all share the common theme of a close-up face with a yellow waving hand. The emote follows the tradition of digital waving hand imagery that dates back to Unicode 6.0 in 2010, when the waving hand emoji was first standardized.
The pixelated style of the hand in this particular version gives it a distinctive look that fits with internet culture and the aesthetic of many custom Twitch emotes. The emote has gained popularity in recent years as 7TV has become more widely adopted by streamers looking to expand their emote libraries beyond what Twitch natively offers.

The emote's enthusiastic nature makes it particularly popular in positive, community-focused streams where viewers actively engage with each other.
