Well well well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions.

No, it's just a very poorly thought out rebrand. Articles keep saying "X, formerly Twitter" because without it, articles actually sound pretty bad and look silly. It's a bad name for an Internet service. It's generic. It doesn't do well in web searches. It doesn't sound good when talking out loud. It's all around a poor idea according to any marketing theory. People are used to saying tweets. It already essentially had total mind share. It was the standard for microblogging. It reached "Kleenex" or "band-aid" status in being the default reference for the concept.
And he just ditched it because he likes the letter X.
And what URL do we use to view X? Oh, is it still twitter.com? Musk is a fucking clown.
Well, it's x.com...? But yes he's a clown.
For me, just redirects to Twitter.com
Oh, I guess it does, I swear it was working as just x.com for a while, I guess I was mistaken.
