I'm surprised that the article doesn't mention Misskey. It's a Federated platform that connects with Mastodon and the like, and has close to a million users. After Mastodon it's the most active platform in the Fediverse, and owes most of its popularity to Japanese users.

Not surprising, they are trying to redirect people on bluesky not on the fediverse

they are basically running a huge marketing campaign and a few halfwits on the fediverse are promoting a 'competing' platform.
nothing new under the sun.

Let's just say that decentralized social media lets Japanese users post stuff other mainstream platforms won't.
So yeah, there's a lot of lolicon.

We live in a society
