Yes, and even the name is probably almost worthless now, he has massacred everything including the original name.
It’s to bad, because the original concept was OK, and could probably have survived without the insanity Musk brought.
I wonder what term will replace tweet… it worked so well. Oh I tweeted this last night…
People aren’t going to say I X’d that last night. Sure you can say I posted something on X or I dunno, but I don’t think they’ll ever get something as good as tweeting on twitter.
I agree, you can’t create something similar easily, it’s like to “Google it”. Nobody would dream to say “Bing it” or “Yahoo it”.
If they had achieved dominance instead of Google we might, but you can’t just change such things.
Even if X should become somewhat popular, to X it doesn’t really work.
So even with a new service as popular as Twitter used to be, it’s unlikely to replace the term “to tweet”. It could simply go back to “to message” IDK. That would work disregarding of platform name, but would lack the brilliance of tweeting on Twitter.

Was just thinking on this more and had a laugh at someone saying this out loud
Them: “Did you see my X last night, i ripped them a new one!”
Friend: “You did what to your ex last night? Does your wife know!?”
That’s hilarious.
But I’m sure Musk thought that through before implementing the new name for the thing formerly known as twitter. /s
