On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of “Twitter.com” to “X.com” automatically.
If a user typed in “Twitter.com,” they would see “Twitter.com” as they typed it before hitting “Post.” But, after submitting, the platform would show “X.com” in its place on the X for iOS app, without the user’s permission, for everyone viewing the post.
And shortly after this revelation, it became clear that there was another big issue: X was changing anything ending in “Twitter.com” to “X.com.”
As funny as it’d be, it needs to be something that could confuse a customer for that to be an issue. I don’t think people are going to get a band and a social media site mixed up.
Technically true, but they could still have an epic argument about the ownership of the x.com domain name.
Like the nissan.com guy who actually won the right to keep his own site.
