WarmSoda @lemm.ee I love how everyone still calls them Facebook. It's the simple things.

gotnuffin @lemmy.world This highlights how deep the BS surrounding Musk has burrowed into the media scape. They invariably refer to his companies as "Elon Musks Tesla" or "Elon Musks Twitter" and so on. Where other billionaire's (for the most part) avoid the limelight and their companies stand seperate to their idiotic personal choices.

chase_what_matters @lemmy.world I say “Elon Musk’s Twitter” like would I say “Joel Schumacher’s Batman” — to identify it as the worst version of the thing.

Elon Musks failed Solar City
Elon Musks failed Boring Company
Elon Musks failed Hyperloop
29 2 ReplyWarmSoda @lemm.ee Unfortunately Boring and the hyperloop were wins for him. The goal was to get cities to continue using cars.
19 0 Replylemmyvore @feddit.nl Boring and Hyperloop were successful, they were meant to divert local governments from pursuing viable public transportation projects.

29 1 Replygotnuffin @lemmy.world I like how you still call it a tweet. I hope tweet, tweeting and twitter remain the lexicon for X forever.

Syrc @lemmy.world No no, let it change. If “””X””” loses the actually marketable and popular terminology it’s all downhill from there (like, even more than now)

ares35 @kbin.social the local telephone service here has seen several owners and even more name changes in the last couple decades. i still call it by the company name it had in the 90s.

Onfire @lemmy.world Just like X will never replace Twitter. That was a weird rebranding tbh. Meta at least makes some sense.
7 0 ReplyWarmSoda @lemm.ee That's because Zuckerberg is actually a smart guy. He may be a prick and an asshole and possibly not human, but you really can't deny he is smart.
Musk is an immature idiot with money.
6 0 ReplyOnfire @lemmy.world Meta lost $40 billion in Metaverse. I wouldn't call that smart. Facebook rebranding kept Facebook as a sub product of Meta. Elon should have done the same with Twitter by keeping Twitter as a product under X.
