Xitter
Pronounced Shitter
I’ll just continue referring to it as Twitter. If Musk insists on deadnaming his kid, I’ll keep on deadnaming his adopted child.
This makes more sense to me but to each their own
Here’s my take
personally, I would have swapped the top pair instead of the bottom pair.
I find ex-twitter more dismissive and destructive, without having to lower yourself and stating that twitter is no more, just an empty shell
Ima throw in my mini lecture.
Calling X twitter, or even ex-twitter or xitter just gives musk a claim to validity.
What twitter was is dead. Allowing the name to be used for the abortion that X is just makes X have a nonexistent connection to what little good twitter had.
Twitter is dead. X rose from its corpse like a maggot, only without the redeeming environmental benefits.
It’s X now. Pretending otherwise makes it seem like there’s anything useful left in it when there isn’t.
If you want to fuck with it, try something like musX or whatever that removes the connection to what twitter was.
I agree, calling it Twitter just gives the impression of denial that it’s now X, denial that it’s owned by Elon, denial that it’s now shit (it was shit before, worse now though), and feels like justification for continued use of it.
Just call it X in disgust, and move on to Mastodon or something
By accident, sometimes I call it Twatter, likely because it’s now filled with bigoted twats.
X-it strategy: planning to get acquired by Elon Musk
Twatter.
X-Twatter.
XXX-Twatter.
