Does this mean I won’t be able to use the letter ‘x’ anymore because a multi-billion dollar company has trademarked it:
- Two people fighting will now be boing.
- When I want to bake some bread I will mi the ingredients together.
- When I want to leave a building I will eit it.
- I will now look up to the stars at night to see the magnificent epance of the Milkyway galay.
Xiaomi be like, you will what your ingredients together?
It’s now iaomi
It’s that guy from Black Sabbath!
just use “ks” instead, e.g.
- boksing
- miksing
- eksit
- galaksy
Multiplication relegated to the scrapbooks of history. Pour one out for mathmatics.
Roman numerals are out, I guess.
You’ll have to replace them all with q’s:
- boqing
- miq
- eqit
- galaqy
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
Hey, hey oh, hey oh
But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing’s changed at all?
Only geeks will understand
Please enlighten me
X is the name of a windowing system used in a lot of Unix-like operating systems
Thanks! Tried the Google reverse image search to no joy.
Yea that’s about as well as Elon’s attempts at SEO will go hahahhaha
It’s like when MS stole the XInput name for themselves, too.
Apparently the X used by Twi-- er, X Corp, is from a font that X may not actually have the actual license to use.
Elon doesn’t pay his hosting bills or rent, you think he’s gonna care about something as inane as a license fee?
Of course not, but it’s worth pointing out :p
“B-b-but I got it from dafont!”
-Elon musk, probably
No, it’s just a unicode charachter. 𝕏
Funnily enough my friends were talking about this as well. Didn’t know until afterwards.

Elon is seriously speed running proving to hoggest of the hogs that rich people are not special or more intelligent. I absolutely refuse to believe even the reply guys with Musk’s limp dick perpetually stuffed in their various orifices can think changing a “successful” (at least well known) 20 year old company’s branding and name. Anyone even pretending to support this is absolutely coping. My brain cannot fathom the stupidity required to believe otherwise.
Rich people are special, just not in a good way
i get it, its the X over the dead eyeballs of twitter as it is now deceased.
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
Does it almost feel like you’ve been here before?
Aaayy ayyoo ayyoo aaayy ayyoo ayyo
Fuck X.org all my homies use Wayland
What’s the top image, is it some Microsoft x-windowing system?
It’s Space Karen’s new name, and logo, for Twitter.
Twitter, unfortunately.
(If that was sarcasm and I whooshed, my bad)
Nope, totally out of the loop on this one… Is he renaming Twitter?
The fact that this gets almost 500 upvotes makes me doubt the Reddit exodus, as this would mean most of us around here are Unix/Linux users.
If it makes you feel any better, I thought it was porn.
I’ve got a feeling a lot of Reddit is Unix/Linux users
I highly, highly doubt that, unless you’re including Android
Wayland ftw

I’ve been using Wayland before it was cool
This is honestly the first thing I thought of when I saw X
yup exactly, i was joking about that on the Linux Mint discord earlier
