Worked great when the artist formerly known as Prince changed his name to a symbol.
How about we don’t talk about it at all?
How about we just stop mentioning it at all?
But calling them xcretes instead of tweets is super good
Love it! Does that meant tweets are now xcretions?
xcrement
Lemmy users trying to not talk about Twatter or Reddit
This, I’m so sick of “I want to hurt something… so I’m going to continually talk about it”.
It’s the worst in games, because all it does is get more people to talk/know/hear about a game. Cyberpunk 2077 was a bad launch, instead of just harping on that, I wish every post was “Instead of Cyberpunk 2077, I’m playing X game and it’s amazing” Get people interested in something else… and in general stop talking about this shit.
Nah. Prince changed his name to stick it to the record label that was fucking him over. That was his livelihood at stake.
No one needs Twitter. I don’t even have an account.
And Prince was so good we would listen to his new stuff no matter what he called himself.
The eX-Bird App?

I’m still calling it Twitter. Always will.
Yep. That website is Twitter and that rapper is Kanye West. I refuse to kowtow to the whims of the ultra-wealthy.
Kanye goes by something else? You know what, I still don’t care. Nevermind.
Hahah yeah Kanye West wants us to call him “Ye”.
Is that pronounced “yay” or “yee”?
Yes
Pretty sure it is “yee”
Did he change his last name, too? To “haw” perhaps?
I’ll continue to refer to it the way I do now, which is to not refer to it at all.
I am going to call it twatter just to make people have a moment of “wait did he say what I think he said or did I mishear him?”

well, facebook is still called facebook, because zucc isn’t dumb enough to give up such a recognizable brand for no reason. he only changed the name of his company to meta, and made facebook a part of it
I just call it the “I stopped caring about that site a long time ago” site.
Saw someone on lemmy calling it ‘Ten’, thought that was quite funny.
But ten also sounds kind of cool, we should build our own ten, with blackjack
Who fucking cares? How about we just don’t mention that piece of garbage.
I don’t call it anything because I don’t really talk about it.
Some publications often do this. At least on Reuteres, as well as other news sites, I’ve seen that Twitter/X is now referred to as “X, formerly Twitter”, probably to avoid confusion.
But “the website formerly known as Twitter” is just too lengthy for everyday conversation. I just call it Twitter, everyone knows what it means
Formerly Known as Twitter is too long … FKT hit it on a few levels.
FKT reads like “fuck it” to me, which I completely resonate with
