I'm not going to twitter to see but are they still using the little blue bird? I thought everything was X now.

They reference Twitter all over their own site. The site is still Twitter.com. Here's their page for advertisers.

Kinda related question. Is there a way to get the blue bird back? Like a chrome extension or something like that

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 years ago

You could. I don't know that it exists. Just don't go to the site though. What's so hard?

it's basically a full unofficial client, it replaces the official website with itself

I wonder if this has anything to do with how Elon fired pretty much everyone right around the time he changed the name...

Makes me think the second image is from an older infraction?

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 16 points 2 years ago

No, the website is just that bad. It still calls itself twitter in all sorts of places to this day.

I just had a look and the tweet was posted November 19th 2023.

They really should adopt Xitter as a transition nickname. Bonus: it actually suits theplatform the most.

Pronounced shïtter?

How hard could it be, just crtl-H "Twitter" to "X"
