So if they have publicly abandoned the Twitter brand identity, can someone else use it?

Because a lot of people are ready for a retro clone.

Would be pretty hilarious for something to take the name. But it’s doubtful that they release the name. Twitter.com still directs to x.com

Start calling everything posted online a tweet and eventually it’ll become a generic trademark.
