50k users accessing 1M records is actually not a very big number from a scaling point of view.

Use whatever tech you know best and feel more comfortable using.

Thank you for the comment. Firebase is gonna be my choice

I just have one concern though, the user will be interacting heavily with the flashcards while studing and I want to store that info for the algo. Should i go with an on-device database for it? or Firestore can handle it?

If you can query for the flashcards once and save it on device, that would cut down your reads quite a bit and make your app work offline.
