Meanwhile, X’s app has a new look, as many users can no longer see a headline on articles posted on the platform. Instead, users see only a blurb at the top, and an image that can be clicked on. The change appeared to be rolling out in stages across different platforms. At last check Wednesday evening, headlines were stripped for many iOS and desktop users, but were apparently still showing up on the Android app.

Many users pointed out that the change is causing confusion, since many posts now lack context from a headline.

The change had been expected, with Musk tweeting in August: “This is coming from me directly. Will greatly improve the esthetics.”

Yes, Elon, in the same way as a library where all the books have blank covers "improves the esthetics [sic]."

He had to give former Twitter shareholders that money and also put up $20 billion, though. He can afford to lose it but I can’t see how he’d profit from this, other than an ideological/power jerkoff.
