>On the contrary, Twitter’s users generally seem to believe that Twitter’s moderation is abysmal

If that's the case why would anyone move to a platform that has less moderation?

Twitter is the bottom of the list when it comes to MAU among social networks (FB, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Snapchat and Reddit all have a higher MAU). Sure Twitter is overrepresented in the tech world, but it's not that captive. There are larger audiences elsewhere. And, to be fair, almost every other platform has a heavier hand when it comes to moderation than Twitter. Twitter still allows porn!

Twitter, is probably the best product you can build when it comes to a text based, real time, social network. If there was a better product people would have moved. When it comes down to it, most complaints come down to "I wish the Twitter moderation rules applied to everyone else but me".

On Twitter, little guys with benign accounts will get randomly suspended over essentially nothing. And yet, you can get spammed by people constantly creating new/alt accounts calling you the N word in your replies and Twitter does jack shit to them even after multiple reports (happened to me personally). Meanwhile the big names, for the most part, get to say whatever harmful nonsense they want and have immunity.

It's the worst of every world.
