Twitter is fully X.com now.

To put an even finer point on it, Musk’s tweet today announcing that “all core systems are now on X.com” featured the logo of the company he founded 25 years ago.

That's the news... is it newsworthy?

Never go full X

It will always be Twitter, because they can never give it to you.

good idea to pivot to video while also calling your site "x".

So, I saw this story and I typed a comment about how it was pretty much guaranteed (given Musk's cutting of the engineering department and the scale of Twitter's operation) that this would cause some slight amount of breakage for the forseeable future, and the unfixable and unflattering nature of the ensuing jank would be the nail in the coffin for Twitter (which for some reason still is home to a lot of journalists and primary sources and etc even to this day in its wrecked-up form).

Then I thought, you know what, I don't actually know that that's how it'll happen, and deleted the comment and moved on with my day.

And then just now I just tried to click on a Twitter link, and saw a black page with this:

Something went wrong, but don’t fret — let’s give it another shot.

⚠️ Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com

Oh shit, it must be Firefox's fault! Yeah, must be causing issues. My bad man, you're right; I guess I will need to switch browsers now so I can have the privilege of using Twitter.

"All core systems are now at X.com", so why opening x.com links in private window redirects to https://twitter.com/x/migrate?tok=, then again to x.com? I just cannot describe how stupid this is.

As others have noticed, it drops an error: "Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com". The link has ?mx=2 parameter. I removed it and the page loaded correctly (but half of the viewport was clumped with banners). I tried again in a new private window, but never saw this error again, so this is a bug due to the aforementioned redirect.

So does that mean they fixed this BS?

I feel like this is relevant:

Is it "fully X" if they still refer to it as Twitter?
