Actually I hate that because they only do that so everyone still knows what platform they’re talking about. I say stop that, let’s actually acknowledge that Twitter doesn’t exist anymore. All that remains is this weird site that is run by a total moron who thinks a unicode character makes for a good logo.
That’s good reasoning. To me, though, stubbornly calling it Twitter is more like refusing to go along with what Elon wants me to do. It’s signaling to everyone that I don’t respect him or his decisions. Additionally, I refuse to give my tacit approval to his stupid choice of name.
Bonus: in the unlikely event that Elon himself sees my comments, continuing to call the platform Twitter would annoy him.
As you should.
I always chuckle a bit every time I read “the company formerly known as Twitter”

“Now shut down company, formerly known as Twitter.” That is what I want to hear.
Treat him like he treats his daughter. I think that’s fair.
