🤣Has there ever been a bigger re-branding fail than Musk trying to turn Twitter into the letter X? It will always be Twitter to me!

It’s funny when you read news articles and it mentions something happening at or on X it always says in parentheses after “formerly known as Twitter”. For such a massive brand to have not gained traction of a rebrand after two years it’s pretty much clear the rebrand never needed to happen.

Its funny you say that OP because I have several friends who use it (I have never had Twitter and never will) and they all call it Twitter. I have never once heard someone actually refer to it as X so he might as well have left good enough alone.

Oh, I absolutely refuse, refuse to call it anything but twitter. I mean twitter is basically dead so this little argument will not be an issue much longer but anytime I reference or will reference this social media platform, I will call twitter.

I’ve already resigned, and would prefer to be unemployed rather than continue working here.
