    Hehe, calling it “X/Twitter” now. Nice way to address the complaints while keeping reference to the new branding.

    I still prefer Twitter, but I can respect that.

      I was listening to NPR yesterday and the reporter kept referring to it as “X, now rebranded Twitter.” What else can you do? If you just say “X” nobody knows what the devil you’re talking about. It’s like “the artist formally known as Prince.” Forever awkward.

        The New York Times actually referred to it as “the service formerly known as Twitter”. I love it, we should all follow suit!

      I’d rather call it something else (I’m enjoying Xitter, pronounced Shitter), but for the purpose of ease of use I transcribe it as X/Twitter so as to hopefully confuse people as little as possible.
