On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of “Twitter.com” to “X.com” automatically.
If a user typed in “Twitter.com,” they would see “Twitter.com” as they typed it before hitting “Post.” But, after submitting, the platform would show “X.com” in its place on the X for iOS app, without the user’s permission, for everyone viewing the post.
And shortly after this revelation, it became clear that there was another big issue: X was changing anything ending in “Twitter.com” to “X.com.”
Why are they your friends, then?
Edit: I should have added more context. I’m not saying you shouldn’t be friends with Twitter users. I was referring to this:
I wouldn’t want to be friends with someone with “no integrity whatsoever.”
Work “friends” or also known as colleagues. Sometimes you just make do.
Oh, I don’t have work friends. I only have coworkers. I used to have work friends, but they rarely were there for me when I got laid off twice.
that’s why it’s work “friends”.
Oh, hehe. I get it now. “friends.”
I really hope this is sarcasm. I couldn’t imagine basing my friendships solely on whether or not they use Twitter.
No, that’s not what I meant, though I’ve updated my original comment to add more context.

Well, fuck that. Don’t be “friends” with people like that.
