Free speech is about being able to express ideas and these can be supressed by private entities, communities or a number of non-government entities like a church.
If you fear Parler being online, you are being tricked by the media.
What's important is to being as open as possible and having open structures.
All of these are education problems not free speech problems. Speech is a signal not something to be repressed

As an American storing data in Australia creates another problem. The US can't spy in the US on it's own citizens but another country can at the request of the US government and will report everything back to the US.
I would pick Russia or China first...
Or just use protonmail which is designed to offer some protection.
Scaling that to every taxpayer or even every taxpayer in the largest apartment in Boise would be impossible using the same techniques.
Doesn't she deserve to be heard? By labeling her a antivaxer and ignoring her based on that label you effectively are closing your mind to her.
On average a terrorist would be smarter than the average person. Terrorists are highly motiviated individuals, they can deeply understand an ideology and they activity learn/train in specialized skills. Compared to the average person their IQ would be 20 points higher.
Being a terrorist isn't easy. It's not a job for everyone.
Open vs Star Office?
kde vs gnome
python 2 vs 3?
Where do you live?
This tech could be used to replace the function of this doctor making them less useful.

As a developer. I went to school for a period of time. I have had a 20 year career of sucessful development jobs/projects.
If someone walked in without any experience but showed me a better way to develop a project through understandable datapoints I would listen and not ignore them because I was somehow all knowing. I may even buy. Why are Doctors different?
90% of users don't understand your product as well. They haven't totally bought in. They will need more support/handholding in order to convert. People are trying to get your product to work for their situation and if they can't 90% will go away and 10% will ask (usually dumb questions).
Your unhappy with the 10% who can't get it working but want your product to work enough to bother to ask?
I guess you can feel that way. Those 10% do represent an opportunity to get a group of people who want to use your product to onboard. The ones who tried and failed and never asked a question will probably never come back. If you ultimately want more support you are going to need to convert this group (or invest more time in advertising hoping to get more superusers/fanboys)
If you take a loan and push on in a field where you go head to head with too many whales and you will lose everything and maybe never recover.
You could pivot.
You could go from startup to lifestyle business.
Otherwise it sounds like you need a new/different business strategy. Is the opportunity really there with a walkable path?
