If you think about that old school ideal Internet, you also have to think about other ideal like everyone can start a server. It's not possible anymore. If you relies on VPS, it's no better than Facebook.
Sure, as an individual, you can afford a server hardware, but not the network. ISP is as same as Facebook.
Also, it's so cheap to DoS the server single person can afford. If you relies on CDN, that's another Facebook.

There are providers that care about free speech, but you'll almost only hear about them in a negative light because they host content from people with disgusting views. There is also tech like IPFS or even Tor, which provide censor-resistant options.
