On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some [users](https://twitter.com/t3dotgg/status/1777425000133468582 "(opens in a new window)") began [noticing](https://twitter.com/___frye/status/1777432913497465082 "(opens in a new window)") that posts [viewed](https://twitter.com/__justplaying/status/1777433986500853845 "(opens in a new window)") via X for iOS were [changing](https://twitter.com/luzfic/status/1777417205992562873 "(opens in a new window)") any [references](https://twitter.com/Arcticstar0/status/1777554091604103486 "(opens in a new window)") 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."
That's what they've been doing. Shared links have been going to x, which redirects to Twitter. They started doing it the first time they tried changing and everything broke. This is their second try.
