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.

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.
61 0 ReplyExactly. This. Twitter. That's it. Melon Husk doesn't get a say, he ought to be ignored completely by everyone.

11 0 ReplyYeah I think twitter is fine. Plus it might drive the rat king out of his marbles.
10 0 ReplyKeep calling it Twitter but add @Deprecated so future users know to avoid it?
8 0 ReplyI 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.

I think we should call it "Ten".
8 0 ReplyPlaying 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.
7 0 Reply𝕏 sounds stupid so I say it, its old brand was something it currently does not deserve
imagine being an 𝕏 user 𝕏ing on their 𝕏 and re𝕏ing other people's 𝕏es
7 0 ReplyJust call it X. If nobody understands what you are talking about, consider it a positive.

It's short and concise, without using the actual stupid name, meaning not advertising "The thing formerly known as twitter".
