Good, now shut it down. One step closer!

I don't understand the reason behind this. The consistency is all over the place behind the brand. Is this a lead-in into a larger idea? that will "connect all the dots". Or are these literally off the cuff changes? The creator payout for ads, seems like the only positive update that made sense recently, along with subscriptions, although those didn't really seem to affect the smaller accounts with <100k followers etc.

He wants to make an "everything app" called X, like wechat in China.

Symbolizing the killing of the whole thing.

The new name goes well with the audience as they already use extensively nazi swastika symbols as an expression of opinions.

The Favicon is still the bird.

Twitter simply stopped using a staging environment or any QA before pushing anything live, it seems.

Thank you, Elon, absolutely genius business decision! I was really put off using a website with a highly recognisable and long lived brand, finally this solves the biggest issue I've had with Twitter since the takeover. It was such a huge issue before that it eclipsed everything else, I don't even think there are any other glaring issues. Can't wait to log back into Twitter now after this! Oh shit I mean ... X or whatever.

I guess birds aren't real after all.

What if Elon and Zack are in this together and Zack promised Elon a chunk of the shares for making threads successful by destroying the competition of Twitter with something more profit producing. Elon's reputation is just the sacrificial goat for making threads a success for both billionaires.

Puts aluminum hat back on.

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

The guy running Reddit seems to be doing a good job of tearing down himself.
