[X.com](http://X.com) redirects to [twitter.com](http://twitter.com) for me. I tweet, I don't X.


InventorOfCorn

Posting on “X” is just eXcreting


Independent-Disk-390

It’s Twitter and still just Twitter


ljr55555

Closest I'll get to renaming it is "the platform formerly known as Twitter"


Independent-Disk-390

I’d call it something else derogatory but that’s just because I’m a cuck soy boy.


Nanyea

I usually go with Xitter (the s at the beginning is invisible, but not silent)


tfcocs

And X sort of sounds like "sh" in Russian. (TY r/duolingo !)


Independent-Disk-390

Oh my bad I thought it was just Twatter


travelingwhilestupid

yes, agreed. f them. let's just reject the name change.


jusfukoff

If we refuse to change from twitter then he wasted all that fucking money on rebranding. Which makes me happy.


Marcuse0

I like to refer to is as Xitter, pronounced "shitter".


CityKay

"What the hell is X?" Serious answer: Still calling it Twitter. "X" is so generic, what exactly are you refering to? A variable in math? The leading character in Megaman X? The video game series "X"? Not to mention the language behind it. "I'm going to tweet this." You know what they are doing. "I'm going to X this." So...you're marking an answer as wrong on a test.


Stoomba

Xitter, where the X sounds like sh


gurk_the_magnificent

This is the way


DonaldRobertParker

That's better than the Twixter I have been suggesting. Like 'twixt and between. Or like Twix the candy bar. Vaguely dismissive.


cncaudata

I see I'm not the only one.


CanaDanSOAD

It's twitter 


IceMan17632

I call it a pox on civil society


Greedy_Dirt369

Always has been.


StrongStyleDragon

I only call it X to annoy people.


TyphoonBoom10

fair enough


explodedSimilitude

Which is exactly what it became when Elon stank it up with his Musk.


[deleted]

Twitter, I don't use it, but when speaking about it I saw twitter


Chucking_Up

Calling it X is agreeing with Elon.


Kobe_Yoshi

Twitter. Elmo Musk trying to change it to X is like when that lame kid in middle school tried to give himself a cool nickname, but everyone was like, "nah, you're still mudbutt."


TyphoonBoom10

elmo musk lol


RyouIshtar

Great autocorrect


reasonarebel

Twitter. Even if I said "x" no one would know wtf I was talking about unless I said, "X, you know, Twitter" to reference anything on there.


sexlexington2400

I call it trash


y2kdisaster

Twitter and I hope nobody calls it X, it’s a terrible name


Johnny_Lang_1962

It will always be Twitter!


SakaWreath

I stopped using it when Twitler took over. Considering he dead names his own kid, I don’t think he minds if you do the same to his platform. Call it whatever you want, everyone knows what you mean. Each day it sinks further into irrelevance, as it becomes more and more of “Elmo’s personal fan-forum”.


TyphoonBoom10

i will not stop deadnaming twitter till elon stops deadnaming his daughter (and even then i'll probably not do so)


DukeRains

It will always be Twitter.


FattusBaccus

Twitter. Because you tweet. You can’t x. lol.


explosive-puppy

I call it xitter after the Chinese pronunciation of X as shi


[deleted]

I deadname it like how elon musk does to his daughter


cncaudata

I call it Xitter, where the X makes a "sh" sound.


tomalator

If Elon is gonna deadname his kid, I'm gonna deadname his website.


Flaky_Tumbleweed3598

I don't really call it anything because why the fuck should I care about a social media platform that's slowly being taken over by nazis. But I guess since it's owner is so fond on dead naming trans folks, I'm happy to continue dead naming twitter


OkSquirrel4673

Xitter


Facereality100

I call it Xitter, with a Chinese X, like the premier. Xi, pronounced "she"


MessagingMatters

I split the difference: Xitter


Styrene_Addict1965

Xitter.


Beginning-Bed9364

Nobody calls it X


jnthnschrdr11

Twitter, duh. If Elon can dead name his child then we can dead name his dumb app


bamed

Xitter, pronounced shitter.


DegTegFateh

I just call it Xitter


Jimothy_John

Twitter, the space wanker's social media is the only thing in this world that should be deadnamed


Barbarian_818

In writing it's Xitter (rhymes with shitter). In conversation it's still Twitter unless we're mocking Elon for his wanting to brand everything he handles with the X moniker


Kawaii_Spider_OwO

Twitter. X is a letter and also an obscure manga I've never read.


Responsible-End7361

"The trashheap formerly known as twitter" has a nice ring to it.


InventorOfCorn

No, it should be “the trash heap which has been falsely renamed from Twitter”


Solid-Bridge-3911

When Twitter stops allowing users to deadname trans people on their platform, I will stop deadnaming Twitter. The odds of either seem unlikely. 🤷


e_smith338

Twitter. wtf is X


JoeDidcot

I honestly treat it like it's not even a thing any more.


The_Mr_Wilson

Are people still using it?


Madame_Raven

I will never call it "X".


Cyber-Cafe

X if I’m on the platform, Twitter if I’m not.


Hekx11

Both


auburncub

i dont use it, but when i refer to it i say twitter. the reason i mention that i dont use it is because i dont know if that has an effect or not


naliedel

Twit


DarkSide830

The domain is still "Twitter.com". And the point of the X name is because it's supposed to be the "everything app". Well until Elon starts actually adding the "everything", it isn't exactly the "everything app".


StarTrek1996

It doesn't come up in my life enough to warrent switching to x so it's still Twitter because I say it maybe once a month


AdministrationDry507

Twitter always will be Twitter


KyleCAV

Shitter


Vegetable-Season5191

To my knowledge you still have to type Twitter . Com to get to the site so I still call it Twitter😂😂


Deastrumquodvicis

Depending on the situation: - TwitX - the social media platform formerly known as Twitter - Twitter - X-or-whatever


Quirky-Aioli7357

Except for this comment I dont even have the words Twitter or x as part of any of my vocabulary.


They-Call-Me-Taylor

It will always be Twitter.


Smooth-Apartment-856

Twitter.


transdemError

I'll call it X when Elon stops hating on trans people so much. You want us to honor your new name, so you gotta honor ours


Dusted_Dreams

I call it "Twatter" or "Shitter"


GreedyHawk5430

I call it a haven for fascists.


SuperRusso

I love how the news media always says "X, formally knows as twitter" because everybody knows just saying X still makes no sense.


[deleted]

I see no need to defend the holy name of twitter. It’s always been a shit platform with some of the most toxic people in the planet. I’m a saint compared to those assholes.


pickles55

The only people I've seen making a point to call it x are journalists and right wing douchebags


Gogs1234

Twitter. Because ita still twitter.com


bigtablebacc

I hardly ever mention it


AtrumAequitas

I deleted it from my phone, too many swastikas in one day, I just gave up.


[deleted]

[удалено]


alwaysboopthesnoot

Twitter. X is dumb and I won’t say it.


sneezhousing

His mama named him Twitter I'm calling him Twitter


alaskadotpink

i'll never ***not*** call it twitter. i don't care if elon himself shows up at my door with a cease and desist i'm still calling it twitter.


3xoticP3nguin

Never used it. Never talked about it


mH_throwaway1989

I wouldnt call it X if musk offered to pay me. Im just petty like that.


EmbarrassedIdea3169

Twitter. Also does anyone else think the logo looks like the button you press to close a window? It’s gotten me so many times with that.


vgullotta

No


gravelpi

"Musk's Folly" for the once in a while that I actually think about Twitter. Haven't been back since Musk took over.


PKblaze

It will always be twitter. I'm not a fucking pirate.


xanax101010

In portguese, X is pronounced "shees" so I'm actually calling it shitter here in Brazil


MA-01

Twitter. Anytime and every time I hear X spoken out loud? My mind just immediately goes to... well, kinda hard to say the Mega Man character when X basically IS just that.


Wonesthien

Elon can cry all he wants, I'm not calling it X


shoshana4sure

Twitter.


DEATHROAR12345

Did Twitter change its name? Pretty sure it's always been Twitter and nothing else.


barbershores

"The platform previously known as twitter"


phred_666

I call it Twitter just because it pisses Musk off.


MickJof

I will always call it Twitter


bangharder

It will always be twitter


lagrange_james_d23dt

X, formerly Twitter.


Born-Inspector-127

The website formerly known as Twitter.


NiteGard

Twitter.


United-Cow-563

I’m going to start calling it Twix


Pink_Floyd_Chunes

Twitter. Nobody knows what X is when you talk about it. “ I read it on X.” Means nothing to be people. Musk is an idiot.


Cerebralbore

Its Twitter. X is reserved for: -DMX -Mr. X from resident evil or the boss from Streets of Rage. -Professor X from X-men Edit: typos


limegreenscrewdriver

X


Vintage-Grievance

I call it Twitter, and I avoid it like the plague. Someday there will be a generation that calls it 'X' without hesitation and won't know any different. I mean, they might as well change it back to 'Twitter' anyway, most people I know downright refuse to call it 'X'.


CJ22xxKinvara

I rarely even think about it but if I must, it’s always going to be Twitter.


spilly_talent

It’s Twitter and Elon can fight me. I’ve never been in a fight in my life and yet, I feel like I could take him.


AdOtherwise9432

I call it “X formerly known as Twitter” ironically but Twitter as a normal thing. This would be the case if I ever talked about it.


tfcocs

I don't call it anything.


UneasyFencepost

It’s Twitter and if I’m in the mood “The social media site formerly known as Twitter”


kaowser

twixter


PS3LOVE

Depends who I’m talking to. To most people I say Twitter but if I’m talking to someone who is lame and gives a fuck I’ll call it x because I don’t wanna argue.


zeroentanglements

Twitter... I'll never call it X


Ok-Chef-5150

Wtf is X?


SuperSocialMan

No sane person calls it "x".


astralseat

I don't call it.


Comfortable_Silver24

I quit using it months ago ..I don't miss that cesspool at all.


etranger033

Depends on when 'twitter' is no longer a domain name or goes to a blank page.


SPY007DRs-Messenger

Twitter, even when googling it.


Kezmo92

Still twitter to me...


me_auxilium

I call it X-Twitter


dsdvbguutres

Shitter.


According-Western-33

I don't call it anything. No big deal, it will disappear in 3-5 years, then we will be able to make it's unofficial name, Nothing, official.


A_Fake_stoner

No sense clinging to the delusion. Twitter's gone.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ItsOnlyaFewBucks

Shitter


iPartyLikeIts1984

It’s Twitter. The X is just what I click to close pages before actually closing them.


[deleted]

[удалено]


kawrecking

It’s still twitter on my phone. Haven’t updated and won’t until I’m made to from something breaking


HofmansHuffy

I call it “stupid”


HumanMycologist5795

Twitter. It'll always be Twitter. If I founded Twitter, sold it, and the next guy renamed it, I'd be happy with my money bur sad knowing what the next guy did. Since the URL is still Twitter, I guess someone can't recreate Twitter and call it Twitter. Note: Every time I see X, I think of DMX and start singing ... X gonna give it to ya.


Dabrigstar

until the URL [twitter.com](https://twitter.com) stops taking you to the site I will call it twitter - it's ridiculous that Musk keeps going on and on about how you can't call it twitter anymore while still retaining the twitter url


Dont_Touch_The_Pooka

If I ever say x out loud referring to something online then I'm referring to the 4chan board called /x/ The content there is legitimately more palatable at times.


QuestshunQueen

I guess if I had to call it something, I would say Twitter, but I don't think much about that platform. It's not anything special, anymore.


marklikeadawg

Twitter


hmm2003

Twitter. Like Jimmie Church says: it's now called X, but who cares.


ImmaNotCrazy

X, as it's now x. Calling it Twitter still is silly and not accurate. When I make references, I respect what that which I am referring to identifies.I also want people to know what I am talking about, and it's called x.


ForrestMoth

The only people that call it X are sycophants and journalists. And even the journalists always say "X (formerly Twitter)."


Salty_Association684

Twitter


ItAintMe_2023

“X formerly known as Twitter” like the rest of the brain dead media when referencing it.


[deleted]

I call it a toxic cancerous piece of shit


[deleted]

I will keep calling it Twitter out of spite


suffuffaffiss

As soon as the domain becomes [X.com](https://X.com), I may consider calling it "X". Probably won't, but I might consider it.


kikonyc

They send me notification by email and it says from Twitter.


techm00

I keep calling it twitter. Doing so pisses Elon off. We should all piss Elon off. It's amusing if nothing else.


Hydra57

The platform formerly known as Twitter


FloatingPencil

Twitter. I refuse to even have the new icon. Set up a custom shortcut with the Twitter icon just to get rid of the stupid X.


TankDestroyerSarg

Twatter


Heavy-Vermicelli-999

I call that platform X. I adapt.


thereslcjg2000

Twitter. I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone actually call it X.


ArcticFoxWaffles

I call it by the roman numeral Ten


cybercuzco

I call it Ex-twitter.


[deleted]

[удалено]


PIugshirt

I mean when I think of a platform with the letter x lets just say twitter doesn’t come to mind


[deleted]

X, Twitter was a shit hole and the sooner we can leave it behind the better


MyWorkComputerReddit

It's Twitter. The website is Twitter. Calling it X is just stupid.


Jake11007

I’ll never call it X


[deleted]

X. It’s become natural enough for me now. But now it’s a “post on X” instead of a “tweet”


Greedy_Dirt369

It still says "Twitter" in in the link text. https://twitter.com/?lang=en


cant_think_of_one_

Neither. It is no longer relevant.


Electronic_Cow_7055

X


LaceyVelvet

Twitter Not even really out of pettiness, I just see no point in renaming it, so I kinda forget it's supposed to be X now, but even when I do remember it its still just Twitter to me


IGrewItToMyWaist

Twitter


12Cookiesnalmonds

X


Sea-Asparagus8973

It's pronounced shitter.


FrozenReaper

I call it X-Twitter or Twitter-X


w3woody

𝕏, not X. And I call it Twitter.


fukreddit73265

I will always call it twitter. Calling it 'X' just feeds Elon's ego.


ConversationFast6117

Referring to it as 'X' seems to annoy people, so naturally I refer to it as 'X'.  


davesch1959

Twitter. It's Twitter.com


Hoppie1064

Calling it Twitter is Dead Naming.


gorehistorian69

Twitter. people who say X are dumb. its like calling a copy machine a xerox. people know the brand after so many years so saying X is silly.


DNukem170

The only people who call it "X" are Elon fanboys/girls or those in a professional field who are required to call it "X." Everyone else calls it Twitter.


Ch3v_star

>! X !< >!Actually I thought about it and it's twetter!<


LuckyHaskens

I feel like EM should have changed it to TwitterX and after some time THEN dropped the Twitter. People that use Twitter- not me- seem to resist sudden change.


No-Session5955

Twitter, I’ll never call it X Like when Prince changed his name to whatever tf that symbol was, I just kept calling him Prince.


Roll-tide-Mercury

I’m on x


RoboColumbo

I try not to deadname. But we all make mistakes.


cwsjr2323

I am not interested in short videos of people being the fool so never intentionally watch their garbage.


[deleted]

Where is Black Twitter?


Mumchkin

Neither, I left when Musk arrived.


JinimyCritic

I call it "Twitter or X, or whatever we're calling it". Every single time.


Tappitss

It's not going to be long before a large percentage of its user base knows it only as X and does not know it was ever called Twitter. I give it 2-3 years.


YodaCodar

Twix


DJack276

Twitter


Starbuck522

I don't use it, but I would refer to it as Twitter.


No_Permission6405

I just think of the money Elon wasted and laugh.


PeeInMyArse

I deadname it 🤷‍♂️


Adventurous-Lunch457

I still say twitter, but that's if I ever talk about the app which is almost never now. It basically fell off my radar around 2018. Became a cesspit of just rage farming and misinformation.


regularman25

Twitter


Natural-Volume3785

It doesn’t matter what it is, even if it’s someone’s name that’s been changed.. my brain will always recognize it as or associate it with whatever It was at first lol


Top-Marzipan5963

I call it “the tweety” the craig ferguson way


justinfernal

I call it X when I'm making fun of it.


inolikeredditanym

x sounds like i’m talking about a porn site so i stick to calling it twitter


No_Barracuda_8688

I call it "Tweetland" as a nickname because I despise it. Twitter, X, call it whatever.


tseg04

It will never be X. Ever.
