What does he think, Apple is going to release a keynote tomorrow with Tim Cook saying “ah, my bad, Elon doesn’t like it so we’re rolling it back”. And if he blocks Apple devices from Viewing Xitter, they’ll finally move on to other platforms which will potentially cut his user base in half.
Can we make a global Lemmy compact to stop calling it Xitter and instead call it Shitter?

Shitter is an actual app on F-droid. It's a mastodon client.
