Summary
Stephen King announced his departure from X (formerly Twitter), calling the platform “too toxic” and urging followers to join him on Threads.
King has frequently clashed with X owner Elon Musk over verification charges and political disputes, including Musk’s support for Donald Trump.
Other entities, including The Guardian, German football club St Pauli, and actor Jamie Lee Curtis, have also left the platform, citing concerns over toxic content, misinformation, and hate speech.
Rival platforms like Threads and Bluesky are gaining traction, with Bluesky reporting nearly 15 million users globally.
Each post that goes viral is poppin’.
If it really blows up it’s BACKNE and it’s POPPIN’!
But the best xits are all BLOWING THE FUCK UP!
Whole place was covered in pus! means EVERYONE popped it. To pop a xit is to share a post.
Gah. Hep me loard.
The mandarin X is pronounced similar to SH pronunciation in English.
Like Xiaomi is pronounced “Show me”
So Xitter and Xit are not pronounced with the Z sound you are thinking.
I mean, shitter is cool and all. It ain’t poppin’ though.
Oh, and yours isn’t the comment I meant to reply to.
Shitter, zitter. It’s all gravy baby.
