It's simple: just don't visit the website, and you won't have that problem anymore.

I need downvotes now.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you should just close the window and never open it again

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Completely agree, but news articles keep embedding videos that will not play in place. Also mildly infuriating.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think you're the only one still on twitter

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Friends don’t let friends use “Ten”

This rebrand is so dumb in so many ways.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh gosh... What a UI mistake that is. 30 years of standard interfaces down the drain!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Such a waste :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Just use Mastodon 😉

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The rebrand is dumb but anyone who believes you've unlearned years of muscle memory in 48 hours because an X got added to the page is also dumb

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Assuming that PCs are the only computers that exist. Cool.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What does the operating system have to do with it? Wtf lol

It's not an ad, it's a browser window. You know where the close button is unless you started using [whatever OS won't offend you] yesterday

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Many linux desktops and all Macs have the close button on the top left side of the window. So yeah, muscle memory on those system is to move to the top left corner.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Many advertisements on mobile devices have the X in any random corner, so what's ya point. I see an X, naturally my first thought is this must be the close button.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

My bad, I forgot that macOS puts scaled up window control buttons inside the webpage

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago

If that's a problem for you, do you also fall for the fake virus alert scams? It's very easy to tell them apart. Plus, muscle memory doesn't apply here since you can just swing your mouse to the top left of the screen and click. No vision is even needed. That's what muscle memory is.

Yes, but also reality.

The new twitter or whatever.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Why are you on it? At least go to Mastodon. Don’t go on TwitterX

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don't use it, but news articles keep embedding videos that don't play in place. You click to play and it loads the whole dumb site.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I believe it's "Xcreter" now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Xcrement Plus

Am I the only one who thinks the rebranding is kinda cool?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You aren't the only one. Elon seems to think so too.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Your comment rests on the assumption that this user is not Elon.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

lol at least it’s a rare domain

It’s kinda cool that he owns that

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Billionaires get to own just about anything they want.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah but only one can have x.com

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I guess Thunderdome if two of them ever want it.
