x (formerly twitter)... you mean twitter (desperately x)

even elon calls it twitter dude why are people still pretending they have to honor a rebrand of a company by a dipshit who deadnames and misgenders his own kid.

just call it xitter (pronounced shitter) as that is what it is, full of shit

nah, i realize it's popular around here but it still acknowledges the rebrand. I just don't want to.

I’m sticking with “Twitter (currently known as X)”.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

it's not though. only musk glazers make an effort to call it x. everyone either says twitter or does something with parentheses. if it were currently known as x people would've stopped mentioning both names. it's been more than a year now. complete failure of a rebrand IMO.
