I like their take on this
whoa
upside down old twitter logo looks like sonic
This is literally the first and only thought I have about this.
“Brand X, Brand X, It’s simple and plain. Brand X, Brand X, it’s different but all the same.”
Next up, X rebrands to Wayland.
Weird to buy such a famous platform only to rebrand it, but seems like Elon Musk wants this X thing to take off for decades already.
Well, I guess it’s X-rated now. Can’t tweet at work any more, it’s the law.
Having my first initial be X now feels so cringe. I used to go by just the letter…
Mastodon instances, get your snarky X emojis ready!
I do wonder how much this, of all things, will affect migrations to Mastodon and alternatives. It’s a very visible change compared to the more abstract changes they’ve been doing recently.
The hellscape of blue checks highlighted saying the worst stuff imaginable should be enough to drive people away, but brands can be powerful. Apparently it’s already making a difference.
On that note I really wish I had an invite for meow.social
Would definitely recommend furry.engineer - but if that’s not your jam, pawb.fun is run by the same team. Reg is open for both with approval required, but the approval is just reading the rules and telling them a little about yourself. If they’ve approved you for Pawb Social, link that in the box, and they’ll probably approve you for the Mastodon instance too.
Best I can do is an invite for furry.engineer . :P
Sounds interesting, I’ll give it a try
