Incidental: I’ve seen people increasingly using x.com links in their articles. How does that happen? As far as I can tell, it just redirects to twitter.com and that’s where everything is, but it doesn’t seem likely that everyone’s changing twitter to x, so is there something that is giving these links?

I have far less confidence that x.com links will continue to work for years than twitter.com links.

They'll never become 'X', except internally. They'll always be known as "the site formerly known as Twitter".

Just like Prince.

Prince wasn't formally known as ""the site formerly known as Twitter"."

It will take. We once called KFC "Kentucky Fried Chicken."

[cantSpellSober]

Nobody called it that :)

> This wasn’t so much of a problem when Kentucky Fried Chicken became KFC—lots of us already called it that

Twitter has always been Twitter

I assume if you're using the Twitter app and click "share link" it gives you an X-y one.

You assume correctly. Though x.com redirects to twitter.com, for what it's worth.
