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."
There's a whole host of modern journalists who don't know how the fuck to do their jobs without twitter, I'd put money on that being the reason we still read so much about it
