I think exploding heads folk went to Nostr, so it’s probably got more alt-right folk than is healthy. Though Twitter is a toxic cesspool that morphed into a right wing toxic cesspool.
If I wanted a social media based on people rather than idea, I’d probably go for Mastodon.
Didn’t he ban several journalists that reported on him banning Elonjet something he said he’d never do, amongst other things. That doesn’t fit in with free speech absolutism or free speech, so I am a little skeptical when he uses that term. You can only judge people by their past actions.
I am not too familiar with Nostr. I think Jack Dorsey endorseyed it. Hopefully there is enough to counter balance the exploding heads. I am massively in favour of free speech, but I don’t like how that is often used as an excuse to freely useoffensives slurs.
There is a difference between mean words and slurs. If you’re not from a protected group, you wouldn’t understand unless you want to. The question is whether empathy is something apply above theoretical concepts. Don’t get me wrong, I’m British and swear like a sailor, and hate when things have swear filters on, but there is a massive difference.
I personally have no idea what is going on on Twitter. I never really used it much as I think condensing thoughts down to a limited set of characters is just a crap design. This is supported by the fact by most users forcing themselves to use threads to work around such a pointless and arbitrary limitation.
Not using Twitter is a great way to avoid the official app.

Is Nostr still an echo chamber for cryptocurrency enthusiasts?
Yes. So much potential wasted/
