You can edit titles on Lemmy! And short answer is no. Even though Musk isn't using the name Twitter for his social media platform, he still owns the rights to the name and the trademark, and can sue anyone using it.

Can you lose Trademarks if you haven't used or enforced them for a long while? the way copyright can enter public domain unless renewed and enforced?

Yes, but X is still using "Twitter." It takes an extended period of complete abandonment before you can petition to have the trademark canceled.
