Apparently they are still referring to it as Twitter in the update notes, and can’t change the name to X in iOS because Apple has a 2 character minimum for app names.
Lmao
I guess they must count graphemes instead of bytes — “𝕩” is four bytes.
“Great, can’t wait to open up my U+1D54F app and send off a bunch of U+1D54Fs!”
—Musk, probably
It’s sweet that he’d rename it again in honor of his next child. What a swell guy.
Plus the fact that X is already trademarked in many countries.
All of which they’d know if their dumbass CEO — er, I mean their CTO who definitely isn’t running the company because they have a CEO who is a different person — had bothered to look into it.
On iOS I only just yesterday finally got a suggested app update so the icon could change. It’s been the bird still all week. Not exactly prepared, were they.
