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.”

        No. He just decided he didn’t want to have a daughter who was trans, preferred not being a dad.

        Shame on you for assuming anything that was not just sympathetic, but that didn’t completely make him look like the ass he is.

          Oh fuck of.

          How the hell should I know that? I am not that invested in his life.

          And sorry for not assuming the worst of absolutely everything?

            Of everything?

            No.

            Of billionaires, especially the ‘tech’ billionaires?

            You probably should.
