Edit: Did some quick googleing and found that Elon Musk says he wants free speech, but his track record suggests otherwise and that Twitter’s research shows that its algorithm favors conservative views
So who's making these claims exactly?  Stressed

Twitter's always allowed (properly tagged) pornography. They have, however, made it a point to censor certain messages. This can be as mild as misgendering someone. Regardless of where you stand on American politics, eliminating censorship is the solution. Free speech involves sometimes hearing things that are hateful/incorrect. The exception would be when that speech presents an immediate threat.
I would imagine that's a rare example, I took a look at the Hateful conduct policy and overall it's pretty good.  What's Elon's actual solution?  Allow hate speech under the umbrella of "free speech".  While Americans have different laws, in Canada, it is in fact a crime.  I looked at his tweets and I can't find his actual fix, just a bunch of memes and opinions that don't spell out a replacement for the policy or anything.

He's actually been pretty blunt about his intentions (genuine or not). That is, to allow free speech within confines of what is legally acceptable. Whether offensive, misleading, or hateful content would be allowed - would be based on the law. What's legal in the USA (where Twitter is based), will definitely differ from the EU. Misinformation, misgendering, or supporting Russia isn't illegal here. I don't use Twitter personally, but I am 100% for free speech.
