Same. Has a vaguely jizz-ish sound that, I think, suits the site well.

That’s weirdly kinda the biggest blunder IMO. Every other similar platform is missing the verbiage, but then they go and hamstring themselves into the same boat. Like, what do you call a Threads or Mastadon post? Certainly not a Tweet, prob just a generic Post. It was a differentiator, and now they’ve voluntarily thrown it away.

Not that I care much, never was on it in the first place
