It's spam. Most Fediverse software like Mastodon and Pleroma support MRFs that protect against spam, as I understand it, but Misskey doesn't. And since Misskey users are mostly Japanese, so is that spam, as it's targeting that Japanese audience.

Interesting, thank you for expanding on how the spam issue has happened.

I'd not heard of MRFs before, from some searching around it would seem its a Markov Random Field model (in case anyone sees this and also didn't know what it was)
