The problem is, is that if you engage with anyone outside of the internet, they have no fucking idea what you're talking about when you call it "X".

It's so fucking stupid of a name. Even worse than Facebook changing to Meta.

You can ask people to call it "X" all day, every day, but you can't just change the name of your brand/product to a single letter, that people use every day for other things, and expect it to work out for you.

In defense of Zuckerberg -- and there's something I never thought I'd say -- they changed the name of the company so that they could introduce new brands. They were not dumb enough to rebrand the successful products. It's just now Facebook by Meta.

Oculus is by far an infinitely superior brand name
