I somewhat share your concerns. Mozilla has been pretty intolerant in the past (firing someone due to personal political views.)
That said, I really can't see anything gaining traction unless it's centralized. There is no decentralized means of payments. Cryptocurrencies don't work because very very very few people use them. And fees from Visa/Mastercard/etc are high enough you have to have some form of a "tip wallet" for it to make financial sense.
The non-profit doesn't have to be from Mozilla. It's something any of us with the organizational skills and other resources could do. Is there a way to make something like a legally binding charter? Part of it could say "Unless your content breaks the law, you can register."
('Course, not sure how you'd apply that to countries with governments that suppress free speech...)
If anyone wants to try that, I'd be happy to help with ideas and Linux Sys Admin skills.
