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

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.

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.

That's not misleading, that's sarcasm.

Welcome to the death spiral

I wonder if introducing an artificial delay, like hitting post, and it taking a minute before it actually goes live, would help. Because then something could scan incoming posts, and if something looked like a bot, it could be pulled before it ever actually went out.
