* Things which surprisingly don't need replacing/renaming as of 2023-08-26:
*
* 1. "Scheduled Tweets" are still called "Tweets"
* 2. "Based on your Retweets" in the "For you" tab. (not sure, needs rechecking)
*
* Things deliberately left with the new name:
*
* 1. "Post" in "Post Analytics" -- a rarely used feature, don't care.
* 2. "X Corp." in the copyright line of the "footer" (it's in the right sidebar on the web version)
* 3. Anything on subdomains: about.twitter.com, developer.twitter.com, etc.
* 4. Tweets counters in "What's happening". It's algorithmic trash, hide it with https://userstyles.world/style/10864/twitter-hide-trends-and-who-to-follow
