There are some public numbers on how many occurrences are found each year on the major platforms.
IIRC, Facebook deals with around 75 million reports per year. Twitter, Reddit, and others were around 20 million reports per year.
I don’t know how many are dealt with on Mastodon or Lemmy (or how you’d even get reliable numbers for that), but something tells me it’s a lot less than the bigger platforms these days.
In the four years that I’ve been an admin here I’ve only seen one CSAM case. I don’t want to see another one. It was very difficult dealing with it on a personal level.
CSAM is a risk on any platform. I guarantee there’s private subreddits with it.
