Sometimes, Elon Musk says something is going to happen with Twitter and the change or idea doesn’t materialize.
But that didn’t happen with his latest head-scratcher of an idea as people have flocked to Threads as of late: Over the weekend, the owner said Twitter’s famous blue bird logo would be replaced by … an X.
We all kind of laughed, made some jokes and maybe we doubted it would actually happen.
Nope! On Monday, there it was: An X.
So of course Twitter users took a look and talked (joked) about what that logo looks like, which we’ve collected below:

The X Window System logo
The new Twitter X logo being floated around looks a lot like the X Window System logo. Essentially copying a logo to replace one of the most iconic logos ever seems like an attempt to drive the value of the platform down. pic.twitter.com/2agd9r6dJG

It seems the new Twitter logo was copied from the X window system project logo!
They are so similar! aren't they?https://t.co/X50DscBhAM#TwitterX #TwitterLogo pic.twitter.com/yzy2znCTGW— FaraSol (@FaraSol666) July 24, 2023

Ruining twitter and then renaming it/changing the logo to the symbol for exit or delete is certainly a choice. #TwitterX

Elon Musk is removing Twitter’s iconic blue bird logo tomorrow.
The change is part of his plan to turn Twitter into a copycat version of China’s “super app” WeChat.
Musk tweeted the X photo on the left, which looks like Xfinity’s logo(RT). Will Comcast have a problem with it? pic.twitter.com/xR5G3wyic5
