Musk does not want people to use the name "Twitter"

[LetMyPeopleVote]

Link to tweet

I hear Elmo doesn't like it when we refer to Twitter 🐦 as Twitter 🐦

He'd much rather have us use the new name of the Social Media App formally known as Twitter 🐦

Unfortunately I don't feel like doing what that sociopath wants me to do

So I'll just keep calling it Twitter 🐦

[EarlG]

1. I expect he would really hate that

at DU we insert an image of the old bird logo over the "X" in the top right corner.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

4. That makes me smile

[Midnight Writer]

2. How about "The Cesspool Previously Known As Twitter"?

[Jirel]

3. I'm happy to comply.

I’ve been calling it Xitter for months.

Of course, I’m sure that Citter catching on would be even more upsetting…

[IA8IT]

5. I feel the "Prince" principle prevails...

[SarahD]

6. OK Elon. We won't use Twitter.

We'll just call you Twit. Or Twink.

[Jilly_in_VA]

7. I call it

Xitter, pronouncing the X as they do in Mandarin: sh. Describes it perfectly.

9. Tell The Media

Because I can't count the numbers of times I've read "...on X, formerly known as Twitter..."
It's been 7 months. Everybody knows what "X" is now. (Still a stupid moniker.)
If he wants nobody to use the old name, reporters should quit reminding people. If people don't know, that's his fault fir needlessly changing the brand.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

13. I hope the media continues reminding people that it used to have a name.

X is a letter. Twitter is a name.

I never joined twitter, but grew to appreciate the nearly instantaneous, global conversations it facilitated because of discerning members of DU who did join it and shared their findings here.

Egoloon should be poked and prodded at every opportunity.

[Wonder Why]

10. Okay, Eloon Muskrat. I'll go along with your complaint - NOT

11. Take 'twitter' off your URLs.

14. It appears that twitter still exists as a subset of that letter egoloon is obsessed with.

[eppur_se_muova]

16. Since some people are still confused by the transition, I prefer to use "Xitter".

You can try pronouncing it however you like.
