Worked great when the artist formerly known as Prince changed his name to a symbol.
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
So…treat it like your…ex?
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.
Yep, this is exactly the kind of worthless post that started making reddit unbearable years ago.
Can we please not immediately ruin this new platform with this shit so soon?
Considering we still constantly talk about reddit… no it’s already been ruined.
Well, you can block me if you are so upset by the quality of my statements…
Why bring up R?
Why are so many posts here bitching/commenting about other sites?
So many posts here sound like someone after a breakup trying to prove to the word just how over their ex they are…but refuse to talk about anything else.
I was talking about OP.
In particular, it’s low effort, attempting to be funny/snarky about about a pop culture or political news item, usually stolen from somewhere else and posted to the wrong community (why is this on asklemmy?), but it gets attention because it panders to the majority of the user base.
My bad. I’ll delete.
Lemmy users trying to not talk about Twatter or Reddit
Nah, I’m just going to keep calling it Shitshow
Saw someone on lemmy calling it ‘Ten’, thought that was quite funny.
I prefer “the ex social media platform”
I don’t call it anything because I don’t really talk about it.
How about we don’t talk about it at all?
I just call it the “I stopped caring about that site a long time ago” site.
I’d really rather forget it forever.
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”.
The amount of posts about Twitter and Musk are flat out disturbing…
We got “#Birdsite” on Mastodon for ages, seems fitting to just continue with that to me! ;)
Just call it Twitter. They’re going to either go back to the old branding, or they’ll be out of business shortly enough that it wouldn’t even make sense to bother referring to it as X.
It’s Twitter.
Alternative suggestion: just let the shot crash and burn and don’t spend your time on an alternative platform obsessing about a different platform. Same for reddit.
It really doesn’t make this platform better.
Seeing what Elon Musk wants to do with it, we should probably be calling it “spyware”.
would be funny if everyone just started calling it “ten”.
I kind of like Xwitter, since the X almost looks like a sideways T, almost like it’s gone into disrepair and fallen over, like a billionaire idiot had stopped paying the bills or was sabotaging it with his incompetence.
