I remember this, the reason BlueSky was growing during that time with Japanese users was because X:Twitter was bringing down the ban hammer on a lot of Japanese Ero Artists; L■li artists in particular were getting hit particularly the hardest. People were creating backup accounts enmasse incase their ban appeal fell through and seek refuge to enjoy their smut on the meantime. Misskey.io saw it's biggest boost during this time period as well. Most artists were told to tone it down and managed re-gain their accounts as far as I'm aware.
