>Comparing the 2021 report to the current X transparency report is a bit difficult, as the way the company measures different things has changed. For instance, in 2021, 11.6 million accounts were reported. Of this 11.6 million, 4.3 million were “actioned” and 1.3 million were suspended. According to the new X report, there were over 224 million reports, of both accounts and pieces of individual content, but the result was 5.2 million accounts being suspended.

You are comparing account reports versus account + content reports.
We tried the free speech experiment and, honestly, lies to mislead the voting public are worse than yelling "fire".
So I disagree that speech should be completely unregulated- that leads to facism as well.
Edit: also, Twitter is absolutely not free speech. Try saying "cisgender" or criticizing the platform owner.
Don’t believe me? Hilary Clinton called for the criminalization of “misinformation.” Who exactly determines that? The government? The government and politicians lie every time they speak but they want to ban others from the same ability?
Don’t like an idea? Block the person. Ignore it. Move on to something else. If someone’s beliefs are so fragile they can’t take criticism, then that’s the problem of the person holding those beliefs, not the one criticizing them.
A lack of free speech is a hallmark of fascism (and communism for that matter.) Democracy only thrives within a free market of ideas. Once you lose that, it’s 1984.
