And already the first instance I personally encountered for myself of a problem with the branding.
When scrolling and seeing the top half of the meme, in no way did my mind assume, in the first moments, that this was going to be about ex-twitter. It parsed X as "generic thing", a placeholder, a variable.
Yeah for me X by itself is the X.org and probably won't change
Yup. At least with Space-X the message seems to be 'a variable that changes things with the space industry'. 'X' is just... a meaningless letter. My favourite is the meme that tweets will now be called Xcretes.
