It's Twitter. Stop calling it x, it will never be x. Why do people bootlick so hard for daddy musk? As soon as he tells you what to do, you just say thank you, and do what your told by daddy? It's fucking Twitter. They're tweets
I like seeing "The website formerly known as Twitter“ and almost no mention of the new name you see on articles sometimes.
That's what the company refers to itself as. It's not bootlicking to call it that.
You can call it however you want, but don't tell other people what to do.
Ugh you sound like such a bootlicking bitch, I just don't get.
If this was any other company, you'd pay no mind to the name change.
Do what you will; I'll treat Twitter/X like any other company.
I prefer to call it TwiX ;) But ma dood, in a year no one will be left calling it Twitter, just the way things go.
I prefer raider.
It isn't Twitter anymore, but he can't force us to call it X.
So I agreed to call it Xitter instead. (pronounced as shitter)
I mean, losing the Twitter brand recognition is such a bad fucking move that I bet a lot of people are more than happy to indulge him in the name change. He paid billions in for the brand and basically just decided to make a generic website out of it.
