I still call it Twitter regularly.

To me, X is a windowing system.

X reminds me of a porn site and the X itself kinda associated for me as X rated. Kinda dumb why they changed it from Twitter.

I call it “Exxx, the everything app” sarcastically like Liz from TrueAnon does. I never used Twitter but I just find it funny to call it that.

And x.com is a place people should only go late at night, when they are alone.
