Heck, Truth Social uses Mastodon, IIRC.
Ultimately, it's software. Even if my home instance does a good job of enforcing it's CoC, and every instance it federated with does as well, someone else can spin up their own instance, load up on whatever, and I'll never know or even be aware if it's never federated with my instance.
This is a prime use case for AI technology

Thanks for reminding me of this masterpiece of writing about management of social networks
No, cause then you end up with a case like the guy who lost 15+ years of emails, his phone number, all his photos, his contacts, and everything else he had tied to a google account, because Googles automated detection triggered on a naked photo of their baby, that they sent to the doctor during covid, that the doctor requested, about a rash on the babies diaper area.. and no amount of common sense would stay their hand or reverse their ignorant judgement that this man was a child pornographer, and even called the police on him.
Yes, it will be an issue on any platform.
But how that platform deals with/fights it is what makes the platform good or bad.
Take Facebook for example in horrible.. Facebook is rife with the stuff, and it regularly gets reported.. and nothing happens. To the point that a Reporter once confronted them about it during an interview, and Facebook proved it did have the capability to contact law enforcement.. by calling them on the reporter who showed them the evidence of it on their platform.
