File-sharing and online chat seem like basic internet activities to me.
typical file-sharing networks
Tox messaging network
Matrix channels
I would consider all of these to be trawling dark waters.

This ain’t the early 2000s. The unwashed masses have found the internet, and it has been cleaned for them. 97% of the internet has no idea what Matrix channels even are.

…and most of the people who agree with that notion would also consider reading Lemmy to be “trawling dark waters” because it’s not a major site run by a massive corporation actively working to maintain advertiser friendliness to maximize profits. Hell, Matrix is practically Lemmy-adjacent in terms of the tech.

Correct. And even then, there’s vanishingly little CP on lemmy.
