I think that may be giving the wrong impression without context.
I don't think Putt was speaking about his feelings on speech, I think he was talking about people in general, and that free speech isn't important enough to potential new users to draw them to Voat. It does scare off the timid.

What I'm wondering, is why that matters. If new users don't care about free speech, why care about new users?
He's talking as if Voat was some type of business that seeks a profit.
If that's the case, I've got bad news for Putt, there's no money. And bad news for the goats, Putts gonna sell them all down the river, if cash is the goal.

Commercial interest, or free speech.
He can pick only one.

Well that's worrying. If Voat implodes, some of them might come here and we'll have to burn this place to the ground.

Maybe we can go private like they did in the early days over there.

Let's burn this place to the ground now. This way we can be one step ahead.
