X DMs may soon be kaput. On Tuesday, a company software engineer posted on the platform that "the whole entire DM's will be gone soon." But the former Twitter isn't getting rid of messaging; the company is said to be replacing it with a full-fledged chatting system called XChat.
X Software Engineer Zach Warunek replied to another user who asked whether XChat would replace message requests.

Engadget contacted Warunek to ask about a timeframe for the feature, and we'll update this article if we hear back.
