OPs title is misleading, there's a difference between free speech as in expressing your free speech and the one that OP is referring to is complaining about paying to express your free speech.

Also, it very much depends on what you mean by "free". If you mean free as in free beer, then absolutely it is no longer going to be free speech. However, if you mean free as in freedom to say what you want, I don't know as I am no longer on the platform.

We need a new paradigm for social media. And no, I'm not satisfied with Lemmy either (privacy issues).
