Net neutrality is about Internet itself. Twitter/X is a service build on top of the Internet, so no.

It is for example when your Internet provider Gomes you 100Mb/s, but only when accessing these particular sites, otherwise it's 1Mb/s. It has nothing to do with data caps or overall speed limit, as some suggest, or with speed on the other end.
