I’m just sick of every article in existence calling it “X formally known as Twitter” like what’s the point, just either say X or say twitter it’s filler bullshit to extend the article.
I see that as a kind of professional fu to Elon. As in “We know we need to call it X now, but since nobody actually does that, we’ll also add the actual name”.

This is the way.
Xitter is also acceptable in my book as long as pronunciation is left to the reader.
Obviously shitter
