In a major change, Twitter has just announced that it has changed its official account handle from the iconic @Twitter to @X.
The name change has been met with mixed reactions from the social networking giant’s 313 million users. While some loyal followers have expressed their surprise and shock on such a move, most of the responses seem to be positive.
Users have noted that the new account handle, @X, feels quite modern and cool as opposed to its prior handle. This may be an effort from the company to give itself an updated, fresh look, something that Twitter is known for.
The goal of the name change may be to reach out to more casual users of the platform while also allowing the company to establish itself as an international brand. It could also be a way for Twitter to shake things up and keep users engaged.
Twitter has not yet announced changes to any of its other features, but it stands to reason that it is working on something. Whatever it may be, the new name change is definitely a game-changer in the world of social media.
Twitter is undoubtedly one of the pioneers of the social networking universe, and with this move, it hopes to continue that legacy into the future. Users should keep their eyes peeled in the coming weeks as Twitter prepares to create something new that could potentially revolutionize the world of social media.
