A bit of back story on this: the Mastodon creator named them toots as a bit for celebrity attention, then, later, he renamed them to posts to be taken seriously. Now people on many different platforms call their posts toots, but post and status are equally valid (the status name comes from the api specification)
I have seen the term toot thrown around a lot for the name of a Mastodon post.
