Unfortunate thing about Twitter is it needed to be a protocol, but because it was centralized, it had to be a platform, so it was inevitable careerist apparatchiks like Linda Yaccarino and Vijaya Gadde would be making sure the “lawful, but awful” speech would be banned or throttled.

No offense to those two, who I’m sure were good at their roles, but people like that are the reason Twitter will ultimately fail, no matter how much Elon promises and markets and bullshits about free speech. You can’t have a centralized platform with busybodies in charge and honor the promises. It’s a square circle, something inherently contradictory from the get-go.
