Just fucking do it.

Maybe then other media will finally stop reporting shit like
"Person Z said Y on X (formerly Twitter)."

It’s annoying enough when they report what someone famous said on Twitter but the articles about what a bunch of random unknown people posted on Twitter (often phrased as if they represent a community) are even worse.

In my language we also have this "X (formerly Twitter)" shit, it's like these fucking stringers got it shoved down their throat by the marketing/lawyer team

Yeah, it's crazy how much influence Twitter still has on the media conversation. Nothing that happens on Mastodon ever makes the news because journalists haven't been able to figure it out.
