Twitter changed their corporate name to X a few months ago, but now they've changed the product name to be X too - kinda. All that appears to have changed is the app icon, a logo on the website and the partial removal of the signage at Twitter's, sorry, X's offices in San Francisco. Check out the CEO's pathetic series of tweets about the re-brand. It's verbal diarrhoea on a level you rarely see in public and attached to an individual - "transforming the global town square", "powered by AI, X will connect us all in ways we're just beginning to imagine", "X will be the platform that can deliver, well... everything" - I feel ill. If you've forgotten, X is Elon's long held (and stupid) idea to create an "everything app" like WeChat in China. A silver lining is that Meta owns the trademark for the character X when it comes to social media. Please, for the love of all that is just and fair in the world, can Elon eat shit in a courtroom and a UFC octagon, at the hands of Mark Zuckerberg? Please, Lord, please.
