I’d love it if he extra fucks up and Jack Dorsey somehow gets the Twitter name back for bluesky
foggy@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Haven’t updated their favicon yet lmao nice work.
nero@lemmy.world 11 months ago
They’ve updated literally nothing except the icon as far as i can see.

Why do people keep discussing this? Specially here on lemmy?
Then people wonder why Rich people keep getting rich… because everyone keeps giving them attention.

Elon doesn’t make money off a lemmy post making fun of him.

People talk about it because it’s interesting. Posting interesting things is pretty much the life blood of social media.
electrogamerman@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You are giving it publicity

Just wait for Musky to try and start suing people for using anything with “X” in the title/name.
llama@lemm.ee 11 months ago
It would actually take serious effort to think of a worse name. Besides everyone knew what Twitter and tweeting are. Incomprehensible decision.
TwystedKynd@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I guess birds aren’t real after all.
original_reader@lemm.ee 11 months ago
The Favicon is still the bird.
Twitter simply stopped using a staging environment or any QA before pushing anything live, it seems.

Thank you, Elon, absolutely genius business decision! I was really put off using a website with a highly recognisable and long lived brand, finally this solves the biggest issue I’ve had with Twitter since the takeover. It was such a huge issue before that it eclipsed everything else, I don’t even think there are any other glaring issues. Can’t wait to log back into Twitter now after this! Oh shit I mean … X or whatever.

How long until Elon starts referring to himself as Mr X, like Homer does in an episode of The Simpsons?

Why does Xerox have a social media app now?
Overzeetop@kbin.social 11 months ago
Because it's just endless drivel copied over and over again to the detriment of our society.

coffeebiscuit@lemmy.world 11 months ago
And how do you call a “tweet” now?

Thorny_Thicket@sopuli.xyz 11 months ago
People here seem to vastly over estimate how much your average twitter user is on board with all this. I’m sure we’ll just keep calling it twitter/tweeting.

Elongated Muskrat continues to deliver on the endless entertainment.

The new name goes well with the audience as they already use extensively nazi swastika symbols as an expression of opinions.

TWITTER IS NOW .XORG
THE YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP LADS
ITS HAPPENING
MaxPow3r11@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Symbolizing the killing of the whole thing.
Tigbitties@kbin.social 11 months ago
Is he going to start/but two more platforms and call the S and E?
Thrawne@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Elon is trying to get the Crest from Birdmans Helmet.
ARealDinosaur@kbin.social 11 months ago
Don't forget to turn off automatic updates for twitter if you're stuck using it till you can get a bluesky invite!
sab@kbin.social 11 months ago
Stuck using it until you *sign up for Mastodon ;)
ARealDinosaur@kbin.social 11 months ago
I did. I tried, I'm just not getting it. I mean I'm here...I'm not giving up on learning this stuff. It just doesn't click for me so far & as a visual artist, the traffic on these mainstream sites is still important for me too. I'm kinda trapped into whatever alternative the masses settle on.

As an X Japan fan, this is all very confusing.
foggy@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yes.
Your browser may have the old image in its cache, but reloading the page from a browser without it in it’s cache would yield an up to date favicon.
