Didn't he ban several journalists that reported on him banning Elonjet something he said he'd never do, amongst other things. That doesn't fit in with free speech absolutism or free speech, so I am a little skeptical when he uses that term. You can only judge people by their past actions.
I am not too familiar with Nostr. I think Jack Dorsey endorseyed it. Hopefully there is enough to counter balance the exploding heads. I am massively in favour of free speech, but I don't like how that is often used as an excuse to freely useoffensives slurs.
Is twitter truly free speech, no but it has improved since Elon took over. I do not think twitter will every be as free speech as it was several years go.
More people of all kinds need to get on Nostr to keep it from being an echo chamber.
And free speech means you will have to deal with "mean words", just have a thick skin and ignore it. I been getting lots of flack the past few days here on Lemmy and I just drop it and move on. I got no time to let someones comment take root in my head.
