Makes sense.

Almost immediately after buying it, Elon enshittified the site - and not only that, but changed it's branding from one of the most recognisable names/logos in the world to a fucking "X" (almost always suffixed with "formerly Twitter" so people actually remember what the fuck it is)

This continues to bring me such joy.

I will never stop calling it twatter

Ditto - and I hope it angers Elon with every mention

It’s not even a unique X. The exact X they’re using as a logo already exists as a Unicode character 𝕏

Wow, that makes it even worse. Couldn't even be bothered to pay someone to make a logo, just stole it from Unicode
