Even the new name implementation feels half-assed. It still says Twitter everywhere you go on the website in words. Like why not wait until you’re fully ready to make the change?
This is wild, a significant percentage of Twitter’s value was its brand, and this guy has just slapped an X on it and changed the colour scheme to dark mode. Do people actually still use Twitter?
journalists and reporters got banned and/or harassed -> many of them left the platform public news services got harassed and branded as state owned media -> many of them left the platform
Unfortunately not enough of those have left yet. News and journalism was the backbone of what made twitter big back in the day, and they still constitute a huge part of the traffic that keeps it alive today.
They seem to be among the last to recognise what associating yourself with Musks brand does for your own brand.
Years of brand recognition down the drain. Twitter was such a big part of our culture that you literarily have movies, tv shows, music promoting it indirectly.
Less than 1% of Twitter users signed up for blue. Elon, nobody in its right mind wants your WeChat clone.
I noticed that occasionally. I just assumed it differed based on the instance of the post or something. My Lemmy experience has been a lot better since I switched away from lemmy.world. Used to have crashes but haven’t crashed since switching.But, lots of stuff is changing, so maybe it was something else.
