If you want a twitter-like experience where you can share political stuff outside the Overton window, Mastodon and Matrix are things that exist. The basic idea is that a bunch of people run their own Mastodon server and can be little dictators on their server, but individual users can still see and interact with content on other servers and have a persistent presence across multiple servers. So, even if one server owner is a censoring asshole, people can still migrate to a server that isn't like that. There are already a bunch of servers available with different themes, so you only need to make your own server if the existing ones don't meet your needs.

FTP servers and HTTP servers are actually not that hard to setup. The hardest part is setting up the port-forwarding on your router. Python 3 has an "http.server" module that makes serving simple websites super easy. Windows has an FTP server built in (at least I know Windows 10 Pro does). FTP clients are built into the Windows File Explorer, a bunch of Linux file browsers, and the Brave web browser. You can use freedns.afraid.org to get a free, memorable domain name.
