Needles & Grooves

"Tweets" will also be replaced, according to Twitter's owner Elon Musk, and posts will be called "x's".

Cuz Elon didn’t have enough exes as it is

If this isn't all bad enough, Elon's plan for X is basically a one stop shopping app. In addition to social media, he also has plans for things like banking, his version of WeChat and so on.

Maybe I will use Threads after all

ew, no

"The letter X is just so cool." Elon Musk probably

Does this rebrand in any way help him escape any of the debt load he took on for Twitter? i.e., if it's not Twitter anymore, does any of that debt go away? It's literally the only reason I would accept as legitimate for such a stupid and rushed rollout.

What’s a Twitter?

@Indymisanthrope maybe? But also no part of this entire story from the beginning has made sense

@Indymisanthrope speaking of rushed, as of this morning they still have not secured the X handle which is held by an individual. @Twitter is still the official handle with the name of "X".

I joined x.com before it merged with PayPal

The fact that is no longer Twitter doesn't make him any less a twat.

@avecigrec but it is harder to make twatter puns now.

Yeah, enough is enough. I signed up for instagram/threads a couple weekes ago and deactivated my Twitter today. I had barely used the platform since Elon eloned all over it but was hoping he'd get bored and move on to destroying something else.

@RenegadeMonster is there anyway to get the N&G forum the ability to show threads similarly how we can post tweets in comments?

@TenderLovingKiller® ,

Maybe. I found a plugin. But it might require for us to buy the "enhanced search" addon for XenForo to use.

Is it me, or does Twitter no longer show Tweets in chronological order when viewing someone's page. Instead some algorithm is cherry picking featured Tweets on the users feed for me to view. At least via Chrome.

And it looks like Meta also has a trade mark on X
