The difference is that freedom of speech is concerned with what the Government allows you to talk about.

X, through Musk, is now a quasi-governmental platform - as can demonstrated by actions like this.

I agree that is true regarding freedom of speech laws. But many organisations, including social media platforms, have policies regarding freedom of speech as well. Universities are another such example, as free speech is an essential component of academic freedom.
