I may be misremembering but seem to recall them being early to Tw*tter too. Good sign

Are we supposed to call it X now? What a dumb name, in my opinion.

'The site formerly known as twitter'

The unpleasantly long name just makes it funnier imo

“TSFKAT”.

Fewer letters than “Twitter”, expresses more than “X”.

I have seen worse names (“X Æ A-12”) get more eyeballs.
