Nostr clients can very well achieve WeChat-like functionality but imo it's only feasible if they do it by consuming third-party services, otherwise the Nostr client becomes a centralized point of failure. For example, WeChat could never exist in its current form without State blessing. If at any point they don't want to follow State orders then they can be quickly shut down.
