Yes, because I am quite certain someone without anything better to do would correct me on that.

For me Facebook will always be Facebook, and Twitter will always be Twitter.

If Elon can deadname his daughter, then we can deadname his company.

That’s the rationale I’ve been using.

Well, you sure managed to avoid that by setting up camp on that hill. Kudos on so much time saved.

Well, for me the product will always be "Thefacebook", but that's since I haven't used it since. But I do respect that there's a company running it now that does more stuff and contributes to open source projects.

I think I'm taking it personally because I had previously changed my name and had people repeatedly call me by my old name just to annoy/hurt me.

Obviously I know that companies aren't people and don't have feelings, but I can't understand why you would intentionally avoid using their chosen name, even when it's more effort to you.

I wouldn’t do that to a person. I’m not worried about hurting Twitter’s feelings, though.
