I don’t use it, but i’ll forever call it Twitter.
I will absolutely not call it anything but twitter
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.
Never. “X” is so cringey to say.
X11
xorg-x11
I’m gonna deadname his company for as long as he deadnames his kid :)
X is still such a stupid fucking name. I feel cringe saying that.
It’s very “hacking, trenchcoats, and Muse are cool” isn’t it?
Like, yeah. Obviously this guy thought of it…
What did Muse do to deserve this?
I want to know but am afraid to search for it… I liked Muse but havent lept up with their recent works.
Other than Matthew banging all the models and the bassist getting help for alcoholism, I don’t know of any other news, other than they are fuckin rad!
I won’t. It will always be twitter, and he bought it because people made fun of him.
He offered to buy it as a joke, and was forced to finish the transaction because he had taken it too far by actually signing contracts and putting money down. He was gonna go “Just kidding” and pull out, but then the courts told him that this already constituted a legally binding sell and if he tried to back out now he’d go to jail for fraud.
That sounds like the courts are fucking stupid and ill-prepared to do their jobs.
As long as twitter.com redirects there, it’s twitter 👐
agreed, this is how i think of it
I always just hear it referred to as xorg, which I pronounce “x-org”
I pronounce it “the 2nd best windowing system currently used by GNU/Linux users”
I like saying it like “zorg”
Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg
“The ever efficient flamethrower. My favorite.”
Zorg-rush
I always pronounce the dot.
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.
deadnames?
Like, something with AEX12? Pretty sure it doesn’t mean he has an actual dead child
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
I prefer to call it “dead Larry”.
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.
Is there anything the average person can do to increase the running cost of Twitter without increasing their revenue?
Like, can we just automate uploading videos of nothing meaningful, and re-loading them over and over forever?
I still don’t use twitter
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.
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”.
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.
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.
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”

What about his child? The one with the name that qualifies as a good password?
I’m still pushing Xitter, pronounced with the “shee” sound
That’s what I call it.
This is the way.
