Lichess is leaving X (formerly Twitter)

• throwaway4220 2y ago
  Like the lichess style. Just getting into chess and I like the chess dot com game review. Is there a similar tool for lichess or other site

  > Lichess is leaving X (formerly Twitter) Just the worst rebrand. Like, this clarification will be required _forever_, I would think. At least in other terrible rebrands, people might eventually get used to calling the Royal Mail Consignia or whatever (they didn't; it got changed back), but 'X' will forever look like a drafting error.

    If he actually pulls off the "everything app" idea, so that it becomes ubiquitous as a way of sending money, then "X" will make more sense. It'll make it feel fundamental, and "tweets" will seem too frivolous. That might be the biggest "if" I've ever seen.

      Eh, nah, that’s a ‘definitely not’, tbh.
