I don’t use it, but i’ll forever call it Twitter.
Musk-chan?

I thought we all agreed to call it shitter?
South park called that years ago
Xitter
Musk made CCP happy
Dude literally bought Kleenex and insists you call it facial tissue paper.
Nah. He bought Kleenex and insists that you call it 42 because it’s a cool number.
He’ll call it Nexes
Hey, good news, Elon. Most of us have gone from calling it “twitter” to calling it “that facist shithole that used to be twitter”.
Good job wasting 43 BILLION dollars only to see it’s traffic literally cut in half, you micro-penised shitstain on society. You will not be remembered as the genius your group of ass kissers tell you you are. You’ll be remembered as being dumber than a one brain celled orange tabby.
And it’s now less than one year salary because greed.
…who’s salary? I don’t make anywhere close to 43 billion a year. What job do YOU have???
They’re talking about Musk’s income…
That’s giving him too much credit, orange cats are just dumb not evil. He sucks the life of of people, encourages the spread of disease and death. He’s a mosquito. Just an annoying, insignificant bug that will only be remembered for the discomfort he caused.
I thought we always called it “radical shithole”. Not much changed. It’s just SJWs making indie gamedevs suicide were replaced with Christians making everyone else suicide.
God I hate the pedo hunts, like yeah even if they find real freaks… The fact that so many who weren’t guilty had their lives ruined and in some cases ended over bullshit accusations is offensive, especially since evidence collected in an illicit manner is not admissible in court. Prosecutors call it “Fruit from the Forbidden Tree”

Well he did take a fairly neutral platform used to spread ideas and form movements and destroy it. So I’m sure the right and the rich are happy about that.
They are. This is the equivalent of a 19th century steel tycoon buying up newspapers all across the country. It’s an investment.
You’re being optimistic. He won’t be remembered at all.
All the biggest disasters are remembered.
Nag, I just call it shitter when I’m bored of “Twitter”.
I’m still pushing Xitter, pronounced with the “shee” sound
That’s what I call it.
This is the way.
Twitter twitter twitter, you asshole
Awww. Poor Twitler doesn’t like his propaganda arm called Twitter.
Don’t call it, this place is irrelevant, just don’t mention it anymore, only idiots, normies and boomers are left
“Only the vast majority of the population are left” is a weird argument to make.
That’s pretty much what I’ve said about Twitter since he changed the name- I’ll keep calling it Twitter while he still allows deadnaming.
Corporations are not people. They do not have a sense of identity. They do not deserve the same rights as humans. They are not capable of being affected by things like gender dysphoria. A corporation does not have feelings and is only a word we use to describe a collective form of actions made by ACTUAL humans.
You literally can not deadname a company. But Elon should understand the hypocrisy none the less.
I agree with you, but then there’s this, which is silly.
deadnames?
Like, something with AEX12? Pretty sure it doesn’t mean he has an actual dead child
Oh boy. No he has a male to female transgender child, who he intentionally calls by their given name at birth, Also he really switched over to being conservative and anti-trans after said child came out to him. Usually parents go the other way, but he went the extreme hate direction and has seemingly said his child is dead to him.
Using a trans person’s original name when they’ve chosen a new one
Thanks for actually answering and not just downvoting like some toxic fucks in here. It seems that not even Lemmy is immune from social media’s toxicity.
Sometimes people just assume that when someone asks a question that seems obvious to them, the person asking the question HAS to be a troll/bad person.
Also, you’re missing a flag.
Also, you’re missing a flag.
Yeah I know. Problem is: I am a classical liberal in the original, European sense: I don’t care, do whatever makes you happy.
I have no idea which flag supports what. And even if I did: I have heard of “infighting”, so I am scared that my “I support every single one of you” flag gets taken over by some “but not that group” group and I wouldn’t notice and then have a hate-flag on it.
So, since I can’t guarantee I will take the right flag and update it accordingly, I just won’t.
To be fair your question was phrased a bit confusingly. It was hard to tell if you were asking clarification or supporting Elon in some strange way.
He has a transgender daughter, whom he still calls by her old, male name. Calling a trans person by their old name that they no longer use, is called deadnaming.
I prefer to call it “dead Larry”.
I was following various folks on there but never much posted.
Then, a couple weeks ago they implemented some kind of “live” feature that started spamming notifications like crazy. The only way to disable it was to disable user notifications, which means Twitter went totally quiet for me.
I’ve checked in a couple times in the interim, but looks like I’m pretty much done with that app. I guess it was Elon’s next step on the path to destroying Twitter.
It is always morally correct to deadname transphobes. Including JD Vance who’s “Real” name is James Bowman

The D in his name is for couch because that’s the only place he wants to put it
what like “Tommy Robinson, Whose Real Name Is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon”, where you have to use the full name at all times
Its almost funnier to see every news publication constantly refer to it as “X (formerly known as Twitter”), the constant need to remind people of how stupid the decision was it amusing
I prefer “Twitter (temporarily known as X)”
Ex Twitter
That would imply he or someone else will change the name back to Twitter
or it’ll close down
If it closed down, then it would close down as X
so it would still be temporary, is the joke. It’s just a pune or play on words
It was also temporarily called Twitter though
And we’d still call what it was “Twitter”.
That’s the joke.
I fully expect him to sell it before long and the new buyer will change it straight back again.
