Whatever your goal is, there most likely is no such instance that satisfies your definition of "freedom of speech". You should run your own instance where you have full control. Since most instances wouldn't federate with such an instance, a relatively cheap VPS will do. Even some old computer you may have lying around.

Please understand that “freedom of speech” does not mean that your speech is more important than the next persons. If you decide to start spewing hateful, racist, bigoted shit, the next person has the right to tell you to fuck off and block you, or ban you if it’s their instance. This isn’t treading on your freedom of expression or suppressing your speech, this is simply the other person exercising their right to not have to hear your shit and choosing instead to show you the door.
For example, if you invite someone into your home and they start spouting shit, you have the right to show them the door as you don’t have to listen to them go off in your home and around your guests. Similarly if you’re banned for not following the rules of an instance you’re not “being suppressed” you’re just a cunt.
Want to talk shit from a realm of safety without being called out? Do it from your own home where people don’t have to be around you. Make your own instance, or find a like-minded cesspool willing to put up with you.
Here at db0 is about as free as you can get...
EXCEPT.
If your definition of "free speech" is "I want to be racist or homophobic", which I suspect this is, go kick rocks loser.
I suspect that much of lemmy runs on this rule "Lastly, Don’t be a dick", I know that my instance and the other *.nz do.
@prodajvodapavel@aggregatet.org Don't be a dick, and you should be fine - if you want to be then (as @empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com said) go kick rocks

Pretty much any Lemmy instances I suspect supports freedom of speech. There's not really any evidence that admins are colluding with the feds to control what you say.
What may be happening is admins deciding of their own volition to not platform certain types of comments. Notably that doesn't stop you or anyone else from saying whatever; it just means you gotta do it somewhere else, like your own instance.
There was a Nazi community you might have enjoyed, but they shut down because that's what Twitter is for.
Get a life, sadboy.
I checked the blocked instances of lemmy.world and found https://welppp.com/
Looking at the trust and safety about the instance, and reading your replies, it sounds like it will be the perfect fit for you.
Moderation has gotten out of control on the internet, where people abuse their powers to perpetuate narratives they like while censoring ones they don't.
As long as you dont be a dick or be racist you won't be censored.
What type of things do you think are censored on lemmy?
I checked the blocked instances of lemmy.world and found https://welppp.com/ I just came across it, so it may not actually support freedom of speech, but it looks promising.
Yikes... You sure about this OP?
long string of images
And that's just one unbanned user.

Hilarious chaos has been pretty cool in this regard. I like that the admins don’t take themselves seriously and are very active here.
