I think that you are not allowed to speak freely on most platforms. And when i say speak freely i dont mean to have right to offend people, just to have right to normaly tell your opinion.

There are three factors that might prevent you from using an online platform to share your opinion:

  • The government might impose content restrictions on the platform

  • The owners (or delegated moderators) of the platform might impose restrictions on its users

  • The users of the platform might use its tools to police the opinions of other users.

“Freedom of speech” normally just applies to the first. Is that what you mean when you say you’re not “allowed” to speak freely?

Well its realy simple. When i sad i im not allowed to speak frely i mean this. On youtube i post a comment with my opinion not offending anyone and the youtuber delete my comment. I dont want to be on such a platform where every youtuber has a power to silence people. Dthats not fair. In second case i post a comment and youtuber doesnt mind it, but youtube itself delets my comment. Again didnt offend anyone just trying to spread the truth. And its the same for reddit and other popular platforms.

Thats why i respect Lbry, because its place where you in theory should have freedom to speak your mind and noone should have right to silence you.

Thats why i like lemmy also.
