No, and I've noticed most people are still referring to it as Twitter... online and IRL.

I'm good with that... it flows easily off the tongue and there's no confusion.

“Musk” formerly thought of as intelligent.

I do get a bit concerned...when E.M. fires his fact checkers! I mean...WTF?

Never used it, probably never will

When it was Twitter, a user could 'tweet' another user.
What do they 'do' now??

Paul T 01-27-2024 05:06 AM

I find it amusing that the website is still twitter.com, so that branding will never go away. I mean, obviously x.com is likely something else entirely (I didn't check!). Who really cares anyway? Not me....I'm trying to spend less time online these days and I quite like it!

Elon's going to become a Have Not if he keeps this up.

I joined X after Musk took over and the fact checking is pretty good now. They don't chase everything, but certainly stuff that looks odd usually has a fact check after it.

I have no issue with how X is running at this point...for what it is, its pretty good, pretty open and minimal restrictions.,

I like it..

It's not perfect but way better than the left wing echo chamber it was when Jack Dorsey was running it.

You can get news and information in "real time", yeah you might need to do a bit of fact checking on your own to weed out misinformation but that should be SOP with anything you see from MSM and internet sources.

I think the changes Elon made have been a thorn in the side of those that would like to have full control of what gets fed to the masses. Much of what you see in current events evolving today and the populace "waking up" is due to those changes.

Saving pics is not easy. Videos not possible using three different plugins.
It's a confusing UI.

Same here.

The community notes feature has pimp slapped the “fact checkers”.

I need some sort of social media. Facebook is run by sociopaths. Tic toc is run by literal communists. None of the others have gained much traction. So I’m trying twitter again.
