Misskey is like "the default" fediverse software for Japanese and (Asian) ACG (Animation-comic-games) communities.

This side of fediverse is relatively big, but almost their community rarely reach out Western fediverse mostly due to language and law-related stuff. They have unique photography, online comic market, and and various creative centric community that rarely found on mainstream Western fediverse.

In fact, before Mastodon.social, the biggest fediverse instance is Japanese -- Pawoo.net. At that time, it was managed by Pixiv (Japanese equivalent of DeviantArt), but later sold to random corpo, the moderation collapse, and now abandoned by its community.
