They may still be on negotiations. I can picture Truth as "Y, the social network that comes after X". It sure can't fail. Then a merge can happen, they can call it Z or Musk may be bold about it and call it Ω.

Uft, imagine if that happened and musk chose a single unicode character as the domain?!
Unicode are already sanitised from domains, because there are ubicode characters that look like - but are distinct from - ascii characters... which opens a huge pandoras box of MITM attacks of malicious sites on domains that visually look the same as legit domains.
If musk wants a single unicode character, all the browsers are going to have to figure out that can of worms
So bold
