He’s unbanned from Xitter which was the whole reason he started Truth Social to begin with. It’s served its purpose.

Do you pronounce the X in Xitter like the X in Xi?

At this point it really doesn’t matter. Say it however you like.

I pronounce it like “twitter” and I spell it that way too.

It’s not like anyone wants that word for anything else. It’s just a play on onomatopoeia that some marketing company made up ages ago because it was easy to search.

Nobody will be confused by the term, and it’s not like twitter is going to do anything terribly relevant from here on out except spiral into the ground. To the extent it matters to history, that’s what people will remember it as.
