You know what would be hilarious? Eventually blue sky buys the leftovers of twitter and renames itself twitter. Although by that time it may not be a prudent move. So maybe not.
Even funnier would be to buy x.com in the liquidation sale.
I can see it now
"The site formerly known as 'X formerly known as Twitter'"
I've been under the impression that part of the reason for bluesky's invite system is to help keep out bad actors. It makes it easier to ban someone and keep them from coming back. Buying Twitter would just open the floodgates.
Just buy twitter the brand but keep none of the user lists or tech stack, just the name. Honestly though I've been sick of twitter for years at this point and I would rather it be reduced to a footnote in history, an emblem of the bad times when a handful of billionaire assholes controlled all of our information ecosystems.
