    Thanks for sharing. Feel free to blame Musk. He’s the one who renamed it to X, which is impossible to filter out.

      You could filter out Twitter and realistically filter out a large chunk of them. Shit’s usually referred to “X, formerly known as Twitter…” in most posts I see.

        Could just make a lemmy-wide rule to always deadname it in post titles. But good luck with that since people still won’t put it all in enoughmuskspam.

                Some of you are just too exhausting and don’t use your brains before correcting people.

                  Maybe you should use yours to specify before you post? Communication goes both ways, if you frequently encounter this problem then you’re likely to be the issue.

                    I don’t frequently encounter it myself, I read it entirely too much on others’ posts. The context clue provided was saying good luck with it since people still won’t put all Musk posts in enoughmuskspam. There’s no lemmy-wide rule about that either. Now beat it, stop bothering me with your nonsense.

          I got the exact same reply from someone last week, not exactly a discussion starter. So I was curious and sure enough it’s the same guy!

          However you did edit in some context here and indeed that’s the problem with trying to filter out a single letter keyword… Though I doubt Elon had the sense to do it intentionally.

            I also quote Bartles & Jaymes on occasion.

            edit: the funny part here is that I haven’t said “Thanks for sharing” that much, it’s fairly new. And I don’t remember usernames, so the fact you’ve gotten it twice already is special.

              Right? Maybe you’ve been inspired to do so by my rambling comment style. Which itself may be inspired by the fact that I’m drinking beer in the bath.
