His plan is seriously to entirely jettison the entire Twitter brand and logo?

[–] _Frog@feddit.ch 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Seems like, yes. He also presented a short preview what it could look like: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1682978324375543808

Bye Bye Tweeting

X probably stands for the idea of his “everything app”.

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He’s been using the X name since around the early PayPal days, at least 20 years. It seems like it’s a variable that stands for “whatever Elon thinks is cool currently”.

[–] Snek@feddit.ch 2 points 1 year ago

It really seems to be X, because x.com already points to twitter.

[–] Zeppo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

So generic. Looks like the logo for a new wrestling federation.

He says a lot of things and immediately tries backtracking. I wonder whether this is one of those times, and what the reaction will be. Personally, idgaf.

Lol changing the logo to the symbol to ‘close the app’

[–] Daqu@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

That's a great idea. If you click the x on an ad to close it, you will now tweet about it.

Time to block this community. So tired of hearing about that asshole.

[–] Little8Lost@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

if you are on an lemmy app like Voyager you can filter words. I dont know about other apps like liftoff, not really a feature i use. It sounds at least helpful for you

[–] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Thanks! I didn't know any of the apps had keyword filtering already
