Twitter turns to X.com. What do you think?

I believe it's part Elon's continues evolution of Twitter. He wants to make it into THE social media platform that will have something for everyone. As that happens, Twitter as a name might become less relevant and also associated with the battles of old. X gives it a neutral beginning.

I like the rebrand a lot. I think there has been a lot of history associated with 'the bird' and this is a brilliant, clean refresh. A new start for Musk to dive into head first. Looking forward to seeing how it develops

Innovative? Refreshing? Let's see Meta, Alphabet, etc. I remember when those ideas were "fresh an innovative," and besides being years ago they were not recycling a name. This is just more inept flailing in desperation while the platform dies. Will my 8.00 get me a blue x now?

The X symbol often means add something here. I think Twitter will stay. It will just become a tool of X. To me it is clear that Musk is seeking to expand the platform into a more comprehensive media and business hub for content creation. Keeping it as Twitter diminished the appeal of such a scope: we all go to Twitter to tweet and for tweets, much less for threads, spaces and live streaming, and it would be even less for posting and selling content. Imagine "tweeting" long essays or elaborated paid content: it won't be Twitter anymore. I think X will become a container which will feature, among others, the chance to tweet, share, promote content hosted and distributed on X. Blue check and subscriptions are two very clear signs of it. I think it's a smart move, busines wise, and probably the only available path towards better monetization.

I think it's a bold move. It's a clear sign that Elon is determined to leave his mark on the platform, and it's sure to be met with mixed reactions. Some people will see it as a fresh start for Twitter, a chance to move away from its past and embrace a new future. Others will see it as a cynical attempt by Musk to erase the history of the platform and make it his own. Only time will tell how the rebranding will be received by users. But one thing is for sure, it's sure we're all talking about it right now and I have probably visited Twitter more today than I have the last few weeks

It looks cooler imo, it could change twitter to the better

I'm interested to see how other parts of the app will change following this. Ex: What will the Tweet button become?

I think they are lucky that they already have a community that it will keep using it, at the moment, but I believe from the brand and communication perspective X means nothing. I guess it is the beginning of the end. Slowly we will see more things from "Twitter" where the grow is flat and start to decrease the usage and the revenue coming from users and ads. There is not much value for the users, how many of the users are really identified with this? Not many.

It could end more badly, as rebranding sometimes tarnish brand image
