And more importantly, who cares?
One of the most recognizeable brands from the past 20 years is suddenly changing it's branding and throwing all that recognition into the trash. I don't know why people keep acting like this isn't worth talking about. I don't give two shits about musk or Twitter and don't even have Twitter accounts or whatever, but even I recognize this is a noteworthy change (and his reasons for doing it) for the world.
Tweeting is literally in the dictionary. It's insane that Musk wants to throw that away.
X-ing/write an x does sound odd. Like an awkward attempt at self-censorship.
