Can't we just start calling it "Formerly Twitter" instead? - eviltoast

Pretty much the title. I think you all know what I’m talking about.

    I still call Meta Facebook and alphabet Google… No one is confused, it’s only ambiguous if you start getting into logistics about business units

    Twitter didn’t even reorganize, they just changed their name to something it feels dumb to say. It’s actually less ambiguous to call it Twitter, because X is a confusing trademark

      Facebook is still Facebook and Google is still Google, though.

      Musk didn’t create a parent company called X to manage the Twitter platform, he renamed the entire platform.
