X (Twitter)

Definition

X (formerly Twitter) is the microblogging platform owned by Elon Musk's xAI. Despite significant developer migration to Bluesky and Mastodon after 2022, X remains the largest real-time technical conversation surface and a meaningful distribution channel for blog posts. The official API is paid; most automation work uses third-party tools or RSS feeds for monitoring.
