Twitter’s new X logo wasn’t made by an in-house designer. It’s from an old podcast hosted by one of the cult that Elon took from his replies.

What does this mean? Is this latex?

[-] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, in a LaTeX formula \mathbb{X} produces exactly that logo.

I already made that joke yesterday

[-] Speculater@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Well keep it going!

Maybe that’s the point though? You were able to type it into a comment and have it pop up on our screen identically to the actual logo.

He wants people to type the symbol instead of ‘X’

If that's the case, then he is severely overestimating two populations:

  • people who know how to input unicode characters

  • people who want to talk about twitter

  • People who had math in high school and have seen blackboard bold/double struck characters

  1. Copy/Paste
  2. It seems like a lot of people are talking about twitter even if mostly negative. I see it in the news and online way more often than before Elon bought it. And we are talking about it now ;)
