Whoever is still there is going to call a tweet a tweet and X, Twitter.
Same for Facebook with Meta or Google with Alphabet. Stupid generic parent company names.
This seems different, though. Google and Facebook still exist, with their respective logos as part of a parent company that mostly nobody, except for investors, should really care about. Maybe this is what will end up happening here as well, as Elon is sadly famous for saying outrageous things and then backtrack on them, change his mind or just never mention them again, but the way it’s been communicated Twitter and the bird logo are just going away completely.
