Over the weekend, Musk confirmed he wanted to move away from the light blue aesthetic in pursuit of a black-and-white themed platform. He also said he wanted to gradually getting rid of “all the birds.” 

“And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” he tweeted just after midnight Sunday.

As the weekend progressed, Musk shared the Interim X logo online.

The logo change comes as Musk has brought many changes to the platform, including a push for Twitter’s monthly subscription service, lengthier tweets and better video quality, dropping verification for most non-paying users, the addition of job postings to businesses and others.

Some changes, such as the banning of certain journalists, have prompted backlash.
