Twitter (X), owned by Elon Musk, has been on the agenda lately. Musk, who did not make any changes with his purchase of the social media platform, has changed his Twitter name and logo in the past weeks. However, no one could understand why the name was changed. So what’s the reason for Twitter’s (X) name change? Here’s why!
CEO: Twitter has changed its name and left the old mentality behind!
Elon Musk has changed the name and logo of the application we always know as Twitter in the past weeks. This news, which created a bombshell effect, surprised many users. However, Musk changed both the name and logo of Twitter to “X”.
This change made by Musk drew the reaction of many users. In addition, users shared many posts for the return of Twitter’s old name and bird logo. However, there was no explanation as to why the platform’s name and logo were changed.
Linda Yaccarino, CEO of X with her new name, made a statement the other day. In this statement, she stated why the company decided to remove the Twitter name. In the CEO’s statement, he said that this decision reflects Elon Musk’s vision for the application.
“Elon has been talking about X, the everything app, for a long time. Even when we announced I was joining the company, I was joining the company to partner with Elon to transform Twitter into X, the “everything” app.”
Linda Yaccarino, Twitter CEO in June, also stated that Musk has been working on this since he bought Twitter. However, the CEO highlighted the company’s plans to enable payments between users, friends and creators.
“The rebranding really represented a liberation from Twitter. A freedom that allows us to leave behind an old mindset and thought. (…) It will change how we come together, how we have fun, how we trade on a single platform.”
