Below are some reactions gathered on the platform:

One Korean user tweeted, “This came up as a hashtag, so I was taken aback. Really. Oh, it’s funny. Because Melon Musk fired all the people in the information confirmation department, now fake news can hit the market, so this hashtag. Oh, it’s funny real #RIPJimmyFallon.”

@AlissaN1130 wrote: “Elon probably doesn’t even care… If you pay him 8$ maybe he’ll think about it. Since he done fired most of the Twitter team. Good luck jimmy! Bcuz it’s honestly so wrong for that hashtag to be made. Starting to become like Facebook.”

@TheWis… said: “Jimmy, to clarify, you’re asking Elon to remove the hashtag right?. You’re not asking him to bring you back from the dead, that would be impossible. Twitter can’t even make an edit button.”
