Imagine there being a website so popular that game console manufacturers put a dedicated button on their controllers to take and post screenshots and then you fuck the website up so much that they disable it

      I particularly enjoy that they repeat it 5 times in their blog post, because they really did not feel like readers would know which “X” they’re referring to.

      Nah. The bigger fuck you is still calling it twitter with no acknowledgement of the name change.

      An even bigger one would be calling it a centralised Mastodon alternative 😜

      It reminds me of when Prince changed his name to an illegible symbol and everyone said, “Haha, no.” and started calling him “The artist formerly known as Prince” because a whole sentence was easier.

        He only did that because Warner Bros argued that they owned the Prince trademark, despite it being his actual name, and wouldn’t let him use it outside of a contract with them.

        Him changing his artist name was basically a big ‘fuck you’ to them, and TAFKAP being in common usage was an even bigger one.
