I will never call it "X," just like I will never call Facebook "Meta."
Isn't Facebook still Facebook? Meta is the parent company that owns Instagram, WhatsApp, Threads, Oculus, Onavo, Beluga, and about 90 other tech companies. They do just like Google, or Alphabet, and buy out every tech startup that has any chance of success to ensure they never have competition.
You still call it Google too despite the parrent company thry added years ago, don't you? ...
called the game of Monopoly
The Twitter brand was the most valuable part of that company. If Musk is dumb enough to throw that away, I will GLADLY call it “X.”
No, I always call it Fuckbook and don't intend to change that but yea, definitely not Meta!
I still think of Facebook as The Facebook from when its website used to be thefacebook.com.
TruthX. It brings it more in line with SpaceX and model X, and also tells what it's turning into.
Didn't Trump already claim the Orwellian social media company name? The one where you get your turds (or whatever they call them) deleted for contradicting Dear Leader?
That's Truth Social. Musk seems to use it as a blueprint for the new Twitter.
Ministry of Truth Social, of course.
