What's an example of social media where the user has full control?

Does that not equate to all forms of spam, harassment, flooding, etc. having to be dealt with on an individual basis by every user?

Running your own single-user instance comes the closest to that. (Also, it needs not be exactly the Mastodon tech stack. Can be other tech stacks like pleroma, GoToSocial, PixelFed, etc.)
