    I’m just sick of every article in existence calling it “X formally known as Twitter” like what’s the point, just either say X or say twitter it’s filler bullshit to extend the article.

      I see that as a kind of professional fu to Elon. As in “We know we need to call it X now, but since nobody actually does that, we’ll also add the actual name”.

      It probably helps searchability, since now there is a fracture of people looking up ‘X news’ and ‘Twitter news’
