Elon Musk said Saturday "sad truth is that there are no great 'social networks' right now."

    X? Can we collectively decide to forever call it “X, formerly known as Twitter” just to piss him off?

      I like the most recent The Verge variant: Twitter, X, or whatever it’s currently called…

      I call it Xitter. The X is pronounced with an “sh” sound.

      Better to just call it “The site formerly known as Twitter” and don’t mention X at all. That would piss him off more.

      I just call it Twitter. Just like I call the (former?) rapper Kanye West. I don’t cater to the whims of the 1% if I can help it.
