      He renamed the site Eggs, so call them eggs. I really don’t see how this is supposed to get rid of the bird theme though.

    X is what he first called PayPal, I wonder if this is just some sad fantasy for Musk.

      He had a company/brand called X which did the same thing as PayPal and merged with Confinity, who made PayPal. He wanted to use the X name for PayPal, but everyone else at the company nixed it.

      SpaceX, Model X, X.com (pre PayPal), and even named his son X. Dude’s got a weird obsession with making X work.

    Promotes the name change by linking to something that calls it Twitter. Big brain time from Musk yet again.

    Wouldn’t you want to forward Twitter.com to X.com and not the other way around?? It’s not possible someone with this much wealth is this dumb.

      It’s a symbol to his fan base. Which is wild that that’s the head space he’s in. Still trying to be that cool kid amongst his rabble of friends.

      He stepped down as CEO but is still president, CTO and anything else he feels like being while he can scapegoat his female CEO for anything he wants.

    early user testing of the new service reports are that the iconic tweet sound will be replaced by an ai-generated voice recording of deceased rapper DMX’s iconic canine-esque barking even though DMX’s estate has not given permission nor will they receive any compensation.

    when sending messages, it will make a sound of “x gonna give it to ya”. again, no compensation to be had to the DMX estate, nor the ruff ryders.
