Haven't tested lately, but at least for a while you could get your account blocked by publicly suggesting people follow you some other place.

PG got suspended for directing his followers to Mastodon: https://x.com/alexisohanian/status/1604604968677392386
They did walk that policy back due to the backlash, but they really wanted to do it.

I made my account private and put my bsky address in my profile, so that doesn't appear to be an insta ban.

No, I described a way of getting blocked that I personally enjoyed. Haters (me) gonna hate, after all.
I think the FSF should not be on Twitter at all. Sorry if I was unclear about that in my previous comment, but the first paragraph was meant to contradict OP's suggestion.

could change birthday to underage and get banned that way
So you think the FSF should've used the account representing them to troll?
