Mastodon became popular in Japan after Twitter banned lolicon and Pixiv[1] decided to start its own Mastodon instance named Pawoo[2]. It had a mobile app and all[3]. Last year, Pixiv stopped supporting the mobile app and transferred the instance to Russel[4]. I haven't followed recently but it seems to be still quite active (Japanese speaking mostly).

>Mastodon became popular in Japan after Twitter banned lolicon I'm not sure CP is a good advert for Mastodon.

  It's not porn, it's just a fantasy drawing with almost no parity to real life except that they look like humans. It took me a while to realise this as well, but in the end, that's what it is. You should never fully compare anime to real life, it's a fallacy that can get you in trouble.

    "It's not child pornography, it's drawings of child pornography." This is one area I think Musk will have trouble with if he honestly does go in the "free speech" direction. There will immediately be speech that's so toxic it will drive off the majority of other users.

      The defining feature of child pornography is that it includes an actual child. Drawings, animations, and written works that depict fictional children in sexual situations may be quite icky to me, but to claim that they are the same as something depicting an actual living child is to deeply miss the point.

        I don't think I did claim they were the same thing. Drawings of child pornography are repulsive (to me) and I wouldn't use a website where I would expect to encounter such. I think most people feel the same way. That creates a problem if you want to run a website that is so free of speech as to admit drawings of child pornography but also has the ambitions to retain a large audience - the two are mutually exclusive.
