Why is this the first time I'm hearing X-it? That's pretty good.

You probably haven't heard "X-it" because everyone still calls it Twitter.
I still call it Twitter because it pisses Musk off. Not that he is on Lemmy, but principal of the matter.
I call it X to piss off X users so they quit. Musk doesn't read my posts.
Source on it pissing him off?
Yeah: https://archive.ph/u9GHg
Hmmm, that to me sounds like he's trolling to drive engagement. At least that is the result he got.
As far as I'm concerned, Twitter is dead and X never even existed.
Because a marketing writer just came up with it.
Didn't you hear about the X-odus to Bluesky?
Daily reminder that the X in Xitter is pronounced 'Shi' like in Chinese
It took me 3 tries to realize she wasn't saying "We took a moment to locate our nearest shit."
Well, you never really think about where the nearest shit is to you
I did as I flew back from Malaysia with a really bad food poisoning. I had to re schedule my flight and whole booking the new seat I made sure it was in sprint reach of the nearest shit...er.
That was a fun trip
it might be behind you
It was inside you all along.
music swells
But i do think about where the nearest xitter (shitter) is.
there's a mastodon client by the name of shitter
Maybe I should try it out… it's not Moshidon, but it has a perfect name!
I hope this leads to many other companies using their abandonment of Xitter as a way to dunk on them in a viral way.
When will the Musk-child sue them?
Can we start saying shxitter now?
xitter is pronounced "shitter"
I've called it zhitter since the original switch.
When you're too fascist for the Austrians...
Are they on another platform like BlueSky or Mastodon?
#XODUS
press X to quit.
I love how both pronunciations work here. Exit or shit.
Uh oh, someone is going to get sued!
rambling about selfhosting
I saw someone suggesting that organizations should host instances, then I'm now thinking, that's the most smart shit ever!
- You can control your data
- Own rules so you don't get banned over random shit
- Third pro
of course there would be some work to host and mantain it, but it would surely be hella nice to have goverments and etc doing this stuff
I would love for that to take off, that's what I've been wanting into too. Problem is they have to handle moderation, but I think there are solutions to it
Austrian Airlines took THE flight!
Highly based
G’day mate! Let’s put another shrimp on the barbie!
It's Austrian
