The twitter.com domain is now being retired, as X is asking users to re-enroll their 2FA passkeys to the new x.com domain

    Wait, why would they retire the twitter.com domain? Just make it redirect, it only costs like $20/year to keep it active or something? lol

    this is going to break a lot of old links

      I wonder if someone would use it as an unofficial mirror like the internet archive for the site lol. That’d be funny.

      They’re going to keep it. Just not use it.

      Otherwise someone would buy it and it’d probably be bluesky so they can just redirect it to themselves if they were savvy.

    How funny would it be if someone bought it and put up a Mastodon instance?
