I don't want to call it X because it's a shit shit shit name
Elon will buy Reddit next and rename it to Xit. Pronounced like...
You're giving him too much credit. He'll probably call it “X”, as well, grabbing some other Unicode letter, but he'll keep using the reddit.com domain. Y'know, like twitter.com.
Call it "the app formerly known as twitter". It's what the media does. It would piss off Elon, and it has a whole prince vibe to it.
Mmh... nope, don't care, my neurons has already a "twitter" thing in memory, devoting 0 additional effort in anything related to that thing
Best name to call it is to just not call it anything. Don't talk about it. Let it die.
Twitter was always bad. It is of course way worse now, but it is silly to have any nostalgic and reverential feelings for it.
Calling twix, or xitter! You can also call it Elon's X (he has many exes, so this one fits in)
Twitter is no worse today than five years ago. But it’s certainly also no better. The discussion about which billionaires we want manipulating public discourse is outright insanity
Xerox.
Can we start calling it Bluesky?
I always call it 'X, the everything app.'
xTwitter
Xlon’s Twitter
Shitter
This isn't a shower thought
Sure was.
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
