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.”
When Elon stops allowing deadnaming on Twitter, I’ll stop deadnaming his website.
The only kind of reverse deadnaming that is ethical
I’ve been dead naming Puff Daddy since he first tried to change his name to Diddy.
Isnt his name K Diddler now?
