Curse English idioms, I literally thought they were rebranding to Mud.
Me too
I was also very, very confused at first.
I’m pretty sure that was the author’s intention.
Probably very deliberate, in the wake of Twitter’s disastrous rebranding.
find fringe idiom
capitalise all words
and… send
There. Easy clickbait.
I think you’re giving them way too much credit lol
I guess I was thinking that if Gwyneth Paltrow could found a company called Goop that anything goes these days.
Wait…. They’re not doing that? What?
I mean, after X it looks downright sensible.
It’s a more down to earth name at least.
sigh
I thought they were pulling a Facebook and rebranded themselves to avoid the bad press.
Good thing it explains it in the second line of the article.
Wouldn’t be the weirdest rebrand recently, honestly
It’s because of the capitalization. If the title was “SanDisk’s name is now mud” this wouldn’t happen.
I mean I get what you’re saying, but a title is always capitalized, no?
I thought so too. I always capitalized my post titles on the old site until someone said I’m a dumbass for doing that and that it’s annoying. 🤷♂️
It wasn’t always like that. A shift happened on the internet like 10 years ago I believe.
