- r2_pilot 2y agoSame here. It shortens appropriately too.
- SV_BubbleTime 2y agoIt is a stupid rebrand. But is the juvenile nonsense really just political Elon-Hate? “I say Shitter”… wow, that’s really clever.
- aaronbrethorst 2y agoI’d say it’s more clever than telling advertisers fleeing X to “go fuck yourselves”, but then again I’m not worth $200bn, so what do I know?
- GJim 2y ago> is the juvenile nonsense really just political Elon-Hate Juvenile? No. That is reserved for those who choose to refer to Mr Musk as "Xitler". Frankly, 'shitter' is a very accurate description of what x/twitter has become. You would need to have your head in the sand to think otherwise.
- SV_BubbleTime 2y agoTell me more about how Threads is going to eat their lunch or was it going to be federated everything, or bluesky? Which one is it now? I guess network effects don’t matter when the guy is charge says things you don’t like.
- jfyi 2y agoIt would be hard to effectively defend Elon solely on the premise that his attacker is juvenile.
- stephenr 2y agoSo the things people post there become... shits? Or sheets? I mean I realise it's 90% shit and hot takes but what's the nomenclature for a post?
- em-bee 2y agoi am partial to ex-twitter myself. because it sounds like X/Twitter or X(formerly twitter) and it actually shows that it is no longer twitter, ergo ex-twitter.
- babypuncher 2y agoThis affords the brand more respect than it actually deserves.
- em-bee 2y agomaybe. i put the focus on ex. be gone, it's over. good bye.
