So Elon says it's 𝕏 but my browser still says it's Twitter
Wonder how much money he blew on that domain only to not even make it the canonical one.
He probably can't change it without breaking something lol
Probably third party apps. Gotta keep those smart fridge Twitter clients running! Musk even memed about it a while back.
Since he tried to name PayPal X also, I'm assuming he's has it forever. Like Bezos and relentless.com.
Even back then a single letter domain was probably worth tens of millions.
Maybe he's just fixated on some sort of sunk cost fallacy. Now that he's finally in control of another online service he feels he needs to use the domain he spent untold amounts of money on just so it didn't seem like a waste.
No, he literally had to buy the domain back from Paypal in 2017. Paypal owned the domain for years, even after firing Elon in 2000 for trying to switch to it.
Funnier yet, when you go to https://𝕏.com you also end up on x.com which redirects to twitter.com.
When I go to x.com I end up on twitter.com

That's funny, when I do it I end up on nitter.net
