unrelatedkeg,

Yes, yes it does. You xit xeets on the xitter.

MystikIncarnate,

Well, I hope that people xit on the xitter… Otherwise it’s not fun to clean up.

I like to look at different cooking techniques and recipes. You have to eat everyday, why not make it fun and delicious!

Buffalox, in Can't we just start calling it "Formerly Twitter" instead?

I cal it “The thing formerly known as Twitter.”, because it’s short and to the point.
Just like when Musk tries to explain one of his many lies, like why the self driving cars he promised would be ready in 2017 haven’t arrived yet.
Also it doesn’t really matter if we call it a failed banking app, or a failed video app, or a failed message app. All of those are true. But it’s shorter and easier to just call it “The thing formerly known as Twitter”. Then everybody knows what you are talking about.

xia,

The PLATFORM formerly known as twitter.

Pneuma,

Is it still a platform tho? It sure looks more like a cliff to me nowadays.

Buffalox,

But what platform is it really? Video? Banking? Or what Twitter used to be? IMO it’s no longer a well defined platform as much as it’s just a “thing” that is whatever Musk dreamt up last. It used to be Twitter, but it isn’t even that anymore.

Just do what The Register does

Twitter, the social media service now calling itself X,

BoastfulDaedra,

Respect, but… No.

badbytes, in What do normal people look at on their phones?

Yeah lemmy is “normal”. Like STD’s are normal.

I’m quitting Prime this month; on top of being twice as expensive as the rest, the greedy mf-ers are adding commercials with a price hike if you want no commercials. Also quitting Disney+ and Hulu for lack of content and lack of funds. I’ll be quitting Netflix next. I quit Paramount+ a few months ago now that I’m all caught up on watching all the Star Trek series.

BorgDrone, in How Many Streaming Services Do You Have?

Netflix, Prime, Apple TV, Disney+, HBO, SkyShowtime, Apple Music.

NeoNachtwaechter, in Can't we just start calling it "Formerly Twitter" instead?

Whether you call it Ex-twitter or X-twitter, I don’t really care :-)

bunkyprewster, in How was Rudy Guiliani as mayor of NYC?

He was elected as part of a white grievance reaction to having a black mayor.

ChillPenguin,

Sooo… Like Obama & Trump but at the state level instead of the national level?

pearsaltchocolatebar,

That’s why they’re buddies.

eXitter seems to be the correct name at the moment.

gilokee,
@gilokee@lemmy.world avatar

x can be pronounced as sh, so…shitter?

When you see the sewage that’s being spewed there it’s as good as any other name.

GroundedGator, in Can't we just start calling it "Formerly Twitter" instead?
