Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

The convention for websites is generally "name" dot com or "name" dot org. If you want to change the name, change the website name.

Until we start going to x.com instead, I'm going to talk about twitter(.com)

Shitter, clearly the only acceptable name.

Won't even use it for porn now.

X is too short and generic. It is literally just a letter.

I am still waiting for a well-known media to call it "the website commonly known as Xitter", instead of "the website formerly known as Twitter".

“Xwitter”

The X is like a fallen over t. Like twitter, falling apart.

I liked what one person said I forget where I saw it of calling it Xitter and pronouncing it like Shitter.

I still call it Twatter

[–] Jonna@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

As long as Elon dead names his child (and supports dead naming), I'm dead naming that dumpster fire Twitter.

I'm going to keep calling it twitter no matter what
