minus-squareplatysalty@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up68·2 年前I mean, after X it looks downright sensible.
minus-squareQuokka@quokk.aulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up24·2 年前It’s a more down to earth name at least.
minus-squareOmgarm@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up66arrow-down1·2 年前It’s because of the capitalization. If the title was “SanDisk’s name is now mud” this wouldn’t happen.
minus-squarelimeaide@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 年前I mean I get what you’re saying, but a title is always capitalized, no?
minus-squareProvoked Gamer@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 年前I thought so too. I always capitalized my post titles on the old site until someone said I’m a dumbass for doing that and that it’s annoying. 🤷♂️
minus-squareOmgarm@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 年前It wasn’t always like that. A shift happened on the internet like 10 years ago I believe.

minus-squareEmanuel@lemmy.eco.brlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8arrow-down1·edit-22 年前Probably very deliberate, in the wake of Twitter’s disastrous rebranding. find fringe idiom capitalise all words and… send There. Easy clickbait.
minus-squarelimeaide@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 年前I think you’re giving them way too much credit lol
minus-squareTheSpookiestUser@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up31·2 年前Wouldn’t be the weirdest rebrand recently, honestly
minus-squareZorque@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up12arrow-down2·2 年前Good thing it explains it in the second line of the article.
minus-squareqaz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 年前I thought they were pulling a Facebook and rebranded themselves to avoid the bad press.
