Most people these days refer to them as posts, toots is older Mastodon linguo.
Etymologically, I think the word "tweet" was slowly being supplanted by "post" even before Twitter's name was officially changed to X. After all, "post" is universal, and there were many uses of thingposting that go back years, even on Twitter itself.
When Twitter launched, they used "post" instead of "tweet". Tweet was a word created by the community.
TIL - thanks!
