Since nobody likes calling it X, why don't we call the platform "ex-twitter"? That way it's technically true, and everybody knows what you're talking about.
or maybe eX-twitter
How about we ghost it until it becomes irrelevant instead.
He deadnames his own child, and yet gets butthurt when the internet deadnames his company. I feel like just “Twitter” is the biggest insult we could collectively give to him as a person, in this context.
Exactly. This. Twitter. That's it. Melon Husk doesn't get a say, he ought to be ignored completely by everyone.
Call it nothing and let it die
I feel like it'll piss off the shitbag more if no one calls it X, so, that's what I'm going with
Could just stop talking about it all together.
Why don’t we just stop talking about it altogether.
I'll just keep referring it to as Twitter if I ever need to talk about it.
Corporations don’t get to have deadnames
I like Xitter. Kinda like shitter if you pretend it's like a Chinese x sound
brb posting a Xeet real quick.
We have truly come full circle.
Oooor how bout we just fucking stop talking about and using Twitter
[I don't think about you at all meme]
I've been calling it 10
Play it cool. Nobody's going to know you're a time traveling Roman
"Hey guys, did you see what's trending on 10?"
...or - hear me out here - we all just stop using that asswipe's platform?!?
Crazy, I know!
or just not talk about it
Yup.
What the fuck is the point of everyone mentions that it was "formerly twitter".
Just call it Twitter since Elon doesn't believe in calling people by their names
It’s twitter and always will be twitter until dick bag fully runs it into the ground.
I prefer Xitter, but to make it more apparent what the pronunciation is I spell it out more phonetically as "shitter".
I just don’t talk about the name change, pretty similar to how I’ve barely given twitter notice for the past decade
I mean, I just still call it Twitter. Probably will until the end of it.
Which hopefully comes soon
Same. Out of respect for the original company's employees, founders, and devs.
Who wouldn't know what you were talking about if you just called it Twitter?
Don't cater to the whims of billionaires. Not even a little.
The artist formerly known as Prince platform formerly known as Twitter.
It's Xitter (shitter) and nothing else.
I've been calling it ten
Yeah I think twitter is fine. Plus it might drive the rat king out of his marbles.
I'm cool with just never calling it.
Keep calling it Twitter but add @Deprecated so future users know to avoid it?
I think we should call it "Ten".
I mean, it still is Twitter. That's the URL that people use to access the site. Tbh I have no idea if Musk actually went through the effort of changing the company name in the business licensing or other company paperwork. Just the logo and header seem to say X. But I agree, I'm getting so annoyed with journalists calling it "the site formerly known as Twitter." so dumb.
đť•Ź sounds stupid so I say it, its old brand was something it currently does not deserve
imagine being an đť•Ź user đť•Źing on their đť•Ź and ređť•Źing other people's đť•Źes
I think they changed it to "post"
Playing into it and calling it X does actually reduce the effectiveness of twitter's branding. Just call it X, let people be confused, and let that kill the fun so they will just move on already.
or just leave that shit hole platform and stop talking about it
If you're so keen on renaming twitter then maybe don't make fun of Elon wanting to do the same.
It's twitter. Always has been.
I call it xruth social
$8chan.
Anything is fine as long as we call tweets xcrements
I’m still sticking with calling it “Y”
"Y" is already taken, by something called an "existential crisis"
Well “existential crisis” does seem to sum it all up pretty nicely!
Or twitter, for short
I prefer "site formerly know as twitter" most
Just call it X. If nobody understands what you are talking about, consider it a positive.
Too lazy to do that.
Twix
Techdirt agrees with you
I think x works if you think of it as short for excrement
I call it: "The thing formerly known as twitter".
It's short and concise, without using the actual stupid name, meaning not advertising "The thing formerly known as twitter".
Or just keep it more compact: Xitter.
Pronounced with sh.
Twits for short. Just overall, forever.
how about TWX?... ( pronounced ..twicks)
TwitX
Lil nas X should rename himself to Lil Nas Twitter
I will still call it twitter. I hope twitter either dies or becomes a giant nostr relay.
How about "The platform formerly known as Twitter" since the name has been changed to a nonsensical symbol instead of a meaningful word?
Hush.
