What does the 58201tumbleweed emoji mean?

When the silence in the chat is so loud you can hear the wind blowing.

The tumbleweed is the ultimate internet shorthand for awkward silence, dead conversations, or a complete lack of response. Originating from Western films to depict desolate landscapes, it has become a staple reaction in Discord and Slack to highlight that a joke fell flat or a question was completely ignored.

When to use it

  • Responding to a joke that nobody laughed at
  • Highlighting the awkward silence after a weird comment
  • Signaling that a conversation has completely died out
  • Expressing boredom when waiting for a reply
