I think the better solution in this case is using Dart/Flutter for the mobile app and Angular/Firestore for Front-end/Backend.

I haven't seen a working social netwotk built using only Dart yet. But I'll try to build that one.
Angular is a good framework, but I have more experience in Vue.js.

What's about Firestore? Never worked with that technology 🤔

Thank you.

Firestore might be fast, real time, and encourage indexing, but not as fully featured as MongoDB.

Also, no joins. They have to be done manually.

MongoDB can give an app a good speed, I agree. So that is why I choose it.
No JOINs? It can be a lot of work doing them manually 🤔
Thanks.
