WeChat is way beyond Twitter. It's nigh an alt-OS. Doesn't really follow (any) Store policy, but allowed due to CCP influence. If it becomes popular in West, West will very likely ban it, maybe based on store policy. If TikTok is problematic, no way WeChat will be allowed.
>mastodon is effectively community moderation.
>it's different on a per-pod basis
Exactly. It's not a free-for-all, but being able to operate their own pods and infiltrate others is a preferable state for 'transgressives' than 'old' Twitter. Decentralization is still worth it, but the end result would inevitably allow them some freedom to do shit.
>there is no one single finely detailed moderation policy for you to play games with
Moderation policy was result of Twitter becoming gigantic. I suspect any huge enough instance will have to adopt a policy and reach same impass.
