The 2023 rebrand replaced Twitter's well-liked sky blue with flat black and white. Most people found it jarring; the old blue had been one of the warmest, most approachable colors in social media.
Twitter's original sky blue (#1D9BF0) was one of the most beloved brand colors in social media — calm, open, and approachable. The 2023 rebrand to X replaced all of it with flat black and white, with black (#000000) now dominating the logo, app icon, and primary interface elements. The legacy blue still appears in verified badges and some UI elements for existing users who haven't updated their app. The starkness of the new palette is deliberate — it signals disruption and a break from the platform's past.
