When I use it, I mean ok, because that’s what it actually means. It’s simply a way to acknowledge someone was heard. I will not be changing bc others read more into it. Tis way too exhausting to consider every hidden meaning someone might have.
Right? I’ve been using it to mean, “acknowledged”, for years now. My kids told me just the other day that their group does not, and that they have to remind themselves I’m not being sarcastic when I send it. I have reached “that” age, it would appear.
I reckon context is important here. If someone is chewing you out and you give a thumbs up it could be passive aggressive. But yeah in a business context I use it pretty frequently to acknowledge the message without needing to add to the conversation.

Boss said I can’t work from home anymore. I simply replied 👍

Right? My reaction was to give them a thumbs up and move along. They laughed.

Ok and fuck you
lol when I read your comment in my inbox I had to stop and think what could I have said for this response
Haha yeah that would have been a crazy one with no context

“Whatever.” Just depends on the context.
The only way I see it as being negative is to look at it like the “yeah, okay” Jennifer Lawrence meme.
