Internet users say Twitter’s X rebrand looks like gay dating app

The common feeling towards Twitter’s rebrand to X has not been positive. Following that, most users feel that it is a play on a gay dating app. This has been a recurring joke since Elon Musk’s statement that he is changing the app to said name. Furthermore, users are longing for it to be Twitter again.

The unpopularity of the rebranding of the social media app to X continues. According to Pink News, Twitter has undergone a significant transformation as owner Elon Musk rebrands the platform to X.

Unfortunately, this is a move that has been receiving widespread backlash and ridicule since its implementation.

A series of changes were made to the social media platform following Musk’s acquisition—including a controversial ban on the words “cis” and “cisgender” with a substantial drop in the site’s value. The official website, about.x.com, now redirects to an old Twitter site, where the original branding is still prevalent.

Users also state that it looks like an adult film website. These are the two popular opinions regarding the rebranding of the bird platform. The word X appears to be in ruin due to certain websites showing illicit content with similar names.

Meanwhile, users who are using an iPhone can change the app’s look and name through the shortcuts feature. However, this may not affect the notifications coming from the app. On top of that, the shortcut feature does customise the app icon and name, but it will have a popup indicating that it is a shortcut.

Users are now directly subtweeting Elon, stating it is similar to a gay dating app. They are urging the billionaire to change it to its original name or rename it to something with more substance. Unfortunately, this opinion is so popular that others claim they’re copying their tweets.
