Ah good, a mail service that scans your mailbox, determines if you're left leaning, and then doxes you to the Proud Boys/3 Percenters/Oath Keepers/etc. Fantastic idea.

Strange, according to our Xmail analytics 90% of people are right wing fascist supporters.
Oh good, they'll love it then because they won't have a choice.
Is it just me or is Elmo now just announcing random shit and hoping that by magic it just instantly exists?
In 2013 he said that his cars would be self-driving by 2016 and has been promising that it would finally happen "by the end of this year" or "next year" ever since.
same with humans on mars, the hyperloop, the tesla bot, the [whatever else he promised/will promise]
yeah elon time is well known lmao
Offering email isn’t exactly like offering self-driving. Any moron can standup an email host in hours / days.
But have you considered that he's not just any moron? He's a special type that will somehow make it suck.
Well, let's be honest, it's not exactly hard to make email suck. I'm sure he'll find some interesting and creative ways to make it suck worse somehow, though...

Elon is good at promising.
What he's terrible with is:
• being a family man
• being not an asshole
• how he evades taxes, leeching off others

Other than paying much smarter, more skilled, and generally better people to do stuff and take credit for their work, throwing out random shit and demanding that others make it happen is literally ALL he's done professionally since he made a Space Invaders clone as a kid. That and self-promoting.
He's the richest man in the world and also the perfect example of the fact that the ultra-rich don't become ultra-rich because they're smarter or more talented or because they just work really hard.
Being rich already; ruthless opportunism at the cost of the health, happiness, and often lives of others; and shamelessly relentless propaganda is how billionaires are made.
Always has been.
That's hilarious and depressing.
The author of that page gave up in May 2021. I'm guessing that they sold their Tesla shares in utter disgust at that point.
Pretty sure that it still hasn't happened today in Jan 2025, despite people making adult movies in the front of a "self-driving" Tesla. Something that seems like a life limiting choice if ever I saw one.
Email would be monumentally easy to offer. Setting up an email servers is easy AF, and if he wanted to, he could chuck any number of free web clients on it.
My guess is that this is a fast and easy way to feed his LLMs with more content.
Gmail rival
It's called an email provider and there are already a million of those. Don't act like it's some fancy high tech stuff
I think you forgot who the target market is...
Damn. Imagine an email service that makes actual emails impossible to find, but constantly bombards your inbox with the most hellish cringest spam imaginable.
He's reinventing Yahoo Mail. Real "Return To Tradition" hours. It'll be like the 90s all over again.

Rephrased: Elon Musk would like to scan the emails of gullible conservative’s to feed his LLMs.
"They trust me. Dumb fucks."
I'd rather keep my food in Jeffrey Dahmer's fridge than my mail on Elon Musk's server.

There is zero chance that people will create filters that automatically delete anything with an xmail domain. Nope. No chance whatsoever. Anything coming from someone who uses xmail has to be worth reading, right?

Makes it trivial to spam filter it.
Stop giving this fuckhead attention for vapor ware.
I liked it for the transfem joke but everyone here is just making fun of elon :(
The joke is good, don't worry. Elon on the other hand..
Fuck big email providers. All my homies use proton mail 😎
We always have to remember that e-mail is a decentralized protocol. If so many people use one e-mail provider then e-mail will be less of a decentralized protocol and can be monopolised. I will hate it.
Or Tuta (formerly Tutanota) with my own domain. It's neither that hard to set up nor expensive.

Is this the greek X? Because then it would be Chi-Mail (aka Shemale)
The X is pronounced "twitter."
That's not how that's pronounced in Greek. It's just like Kai in Cobra Kai. Or the first syllable of the name Kyle.

This dude is fully losing it. I’m predicting some kind of massive meltdown very soon.
What do you mean... "very soon"?
Isn't he actively in it? Dude is publicly calling King Charles to make the UK an autocracy lol,supporting German far-right groups, etc etc

I'm not so sure. I reckon he's using a Trump-style strategy of just constantly doing and saying outrageous rubbish in order to dominate people's attention. i.e. He just wants people to be paying attention to him, and thinking about him, and writing about him, regardless of whether it is positive or negative.
I believe he is doing this as a deliberate strategy, knowing that even if a lot of the reaction is negative, it still means that he has the attention of the world - and that people will listen to what he is saying.
Also his ultimate goal is to become a trillionaire. Because he thinks we live in a simulation and that he is the main player and he wants to beat the high score. And he found out the best way to achieve that is to create a cult around him. Tesla stock only soared to those heights because of him as a person not because the company’s performance. People are buying Tesla stock like it’s a tithe to the Elon church. And to keep people in the cult of Elon he sows division. The more negativity surrounding him from outsiders the more his cult followers will dig their heels into the ground and buy more of his stocks and products.

I swear to fucking God, I will auto report every fucking email from their email server I get.
Gmail is arguably the last good thing Google still has going for it.
Though still active, my Gmail now forwards everything to Proton Mail. It's not as nice, though very serviceable for the not-particularly-high volume of e-mail I receive.

Yes, but this meme (somehow) needs an edit featuring Willam Defoe's character from Boondock Saints:
Melon musk, the Stevia Jobs of Tesla. Owner of X, X, X and another thing called X
I don't think I wanna be provided a service that I know edgelord in chief will fuck with when he's salty.

If it does not ask for a phone number, it could be a good alternative for temp email.
There are a lot of existing alternatives to temp mail, you shouldn't need to resort to anything he has to offer..

First thought is how bizarre.
Second thought is he's desperate for payments and/or data mining.
More email providers is generally good, as long as you always have forwarding and import export options. It makes no sense for X to spend money on this, but hey, go for it.
Good luck handling the spam, lol.
As musky is a free speech absolute, all spam is welcome and spammers can pay with dogecoin to feature their spam in your Inbox. It'll be great!

nice litmus paper for forever ignoring people
Obviously. Because buying twitter was a great idea.
I appreciate that that wording must have been annoying (if not painful) to write for a trans person but she still did it because it was too good an opportunity to pass.
