It’s Twitter. No need to adopt his pet name for it.
I thought it was Xitter, where the X is pronounced with the Chinese “sh” pronunciation.
Exactly. It’s now Xitter, pronounced as “Shitter”.
In Europe, the chocolate bar “Twix” was called “Raider” until the 1990s or so. When they changed the name, they ran a famous ad campaign with the slogan “Raider is now called Twix!” which is still not only remembered but even became an ironic saying (at least in Germany) for when things (try to make it) seem like they change but they actually stay the same.
So… Twitter is now obviously called Twix for me.
Twitter (Currently known as Elon Musk’s X) has a nice ring to it
I’m going to call it Grimes now
it’s Elon Musk’s x
Twitter (the X social media site)
Happy first cake day!
Twitter (desperately purporting to be Elon Musk’s X)
Xitter has an even better ring to it
I"m conflicted because I hate deadnaming people…
But corpos aren’t people, so fuck em
In other news, Elon Musk sues Fidelity…
He buys them.
This is what he did when he bought Twitter. He removed that guy who was posting his plane/traveling schedule. I’m sure he was this petty.
How is this “Technology”?

It’s not Twitter=bad, it’s about Twitter valuation. I don’t care what company it is, if it’s about financial valuations then it’s not really tech related. Just my opinion. I want to be able to find what I want where, if I wanted valuations I would seek out a finance community.

Let’s not pretend these things make it because they are tech related, we all know it’s simply Musk gets clicks. If I start posting articles about the financial health of any FAANG or smaller company, they would remain down or unvoted like everything else.
Your argument would make sense if it included other tech companies, however for some reason it always seems to be Twitter. And I can complain because we all know there are thousands of communities with no traction and daily posts of “how do ai advertise for my community”. Might as well rename it to “Twitter updates and other unrelated tech news”
