To me the space between 'Freed' and 'by' looks awkward:

\starttext
  \startalignment[left]

  \bgroup
    \switchtobodyfont[72pt]
    {\ss  Freed \par
          by \par
          Design}
  \egroup
\stoptext


-- Should I be using \start..\stoplines ? or is this a bug?

It could be just an impression. By the way, how abou this instead:

\starttext
\startalignment[left]
  \definedfont[Sans at 72pt]
  {Freed \blank
   by \blank
   Design}
\stopalignment
\stoptex

This way, you can control how much blank space you want.
