User:Skakkle/X (twitter)

Others here have expressed personal feelings about the name change. These don't matter lol. I don't love the name "X", but I can still recognize that that's what the name is haha.
 * Support. Of course the article for the existing website & social app should exist at the X (social network) title or similar appropriate title. "X" has been the name of the company, and "the service" (the URL-based site & the phone-based app) for a while (10 months ostensibly?). It seems to me that the site not being migrated to the new domain was a legit enough reason to wait to move the wikip article to the new title location. I don't know why that took so long, but the company has now completed that domain migration.

As for treating the pre-Elon-Musk-owned corporation like a separate entity with it's own article, I don't see this as controversial. But my gut says that any content describing the company (called which was called "Twitter") during that period can probably be moved over to the Twitter, Inc article. Modify the first few lede sentences there to reflect that "Twitter" ... "was a company & a social networking service". No big deal.

Interestingly, the purpose of the X Corp article may become dubious, as it doesn't seem to do much but hold the ownership of the social networking service. But cleaning up that potential redundancy would be the final task in this project. Merging the X Corp article with the new X (social network) article would make sense. I think that merge makes sense especially if (as I described above), all relevant wikip article content about the "Twitter era" (2006-2018 is a decent chunk of history) is moved carefully & responsibly to the the Twitter Inc article.
