Elon Musk is a bully

[–] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 1 points 1 year ago

According to Hwang, the company now formerly known as Twitter did offer "an alternative handle with the history of the @x account" so that his original account, complete with its posts and followers, could live on and continue to be used.

What short, catchy username did Musk's company change Hwang's handle to? @x12345678998765.

You can't make this shit up. God damn!

I'm not sure what you are trying to do with this link, the two x accounts are not the same....

Reportedly Twitter changed the guy’s X account to that one.

[–] Arnj@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

I think we're talking past each other, the x who lost his account (I think) is now x12345678998765 the post behind the link was made by the account x12345678908765 they are not the same account, so the link does neither disprove nor prove the article in the main post which makes the comment by sam just useless and deceiving
