It's confusing AF to people who don't follow the news/tech savvy people too, you can bet there's still plenty of people confused.

It's not a failure. It's just a small minority of people who actively refuse to call it X. It's the small tiny minority who hate Trump and refuse to accept that Trump is liberating the world from the central bankers.

The rebranding was a success.

Exactly. A very expensive one too.

People from X = "X-ians"?

Now it just makes me think of repeat Godzilla antagonists Planet X: https://cdn.nostrcheck.me/af92154b4fd002924031386f71333b0afd9741a076f5c738bc2603a5b59d671f/fab65d82c677663225713f21324f887f6285ed67cd3c9de4628a04dff8776416.webp

Better yet ... those that pronounce the X as "Sh" and then combine the two to get Xitter.

I only know Nostr now.

I still call it Twitter for a reason, as it's extremely stupid. Bonhoffer's theory, anyone?

Nobody likes X, in any sense or discipline. It was not a rebranding but a bashing. And they know it.

Personally I call it Xitter.

Time to dump the X

I haven't been on X in 22 months.

I prefer Twatter

Twitter was that what we had before Musk took over. X is the shithole we have now.

I still call the "Mario Cuomo" bridge the "Tappan Zee".
