      You do realize that X is now it’s official name right? Elon changed the name to X and deprecated the twitter name. At the end of the domain registration, he is not going to re-register twitter.com as the domain name, and because he owns the trademark on it, he is going to sue anyone who tries to re-use the domain name.

          I dropped it when trump was spewing his bs on it. My feed was 90% Trump bs and re-posts. I actively dumped fb, twitter and a few others back in 2019 and My life has been so much better since then.

            That’s 100% on you, nobody made you follow those accounts. My TL had 0 trump shit because I don’t follow people who tweeted politics.

            My job made constant exposure to the news unavoidable so Twitter was where I went to avoid it. So many funny people making original jokes. I made a lot of new friends through it that I still see today

            I stand by that Twitter was a great platform if you thought about how you used it

          Nothing wrong with that. When I see a re-post from X/twitter, or whatever he wants to name it in the future, I happily scroll right by it.

          I say let him go bankrupt trying to save it.

          Well he is helping it along with the latest talking point that he is going to make X a subscription only platform, aka you must pay to play.
