Twitter was proprietary before and it is proprietary now. Using Twitter
required proprietary software before and it does now (unless Elon
changes that, which is unlikely). It was possible to interact with
Twitter with no proprietary software and it still is.
If anything, the FSF should be pushing for Twitter to only use free
JavaScript instead (pushing for LibreJS-compliance would be ineffective
and almost unachievable) and never require users to run proprietary
software.
The FSF is not the "everything foundation". It promotes free software,
not whatever other political cause you might have.
There is no significant difference now about either Mastodon or Twitter
(and the differences between the two are the same as before) from a
free software perspective.
