I have to admit, my initial response to your question was incredibly hostile. Almost everyone I respect says that free speech is being abused and we have to be more responsible about how we use it by using it to speak truth to power while everyone I don't respect at all (trump, elon, etc.) abuses free speech like it's a weapon and shield to sieze power while protecting them from consequences.
The most "free speech" lip service sites (parler) ended up moving to "free speech" platforms for which their digital neighbors were quite literally stormfront.
Do you have real examples of western governments taking down independent journalists using free speech to speak truth to power? Because that would do a lot to win me over.
Are you looking for privacy or are you looking for non take-down-ability or are you looking to promote a message?
The government barely has to "silence" people because the governments work on behalf of money, for which media is also beholden. I think it's hard to get a message out without the support of billionaire owned media enterprises.
