What’s taking place and who’s that canine?

The switchover occurred two days after April Fools, which has some folks questioning if it is only a prank that took too lengthy to implement or, simply as attainable, no one knew the right way to do it. Twitter’s mass layoffs have left it severely understaffed in some key areas and it is attainable it simply took too lengthy to get the icon converted.

Regardless of the motive for the delay, Doge is now right here and we do not know why that’s.

For the uninitiated, Doge got here to prominence as a cryptocurrency meme coin, known as Dogecoin, that was made in style by, you guessed it, Elon Musk.
