Better question is what are you doing to see so much hentai. I have NSFW on, and regularly browse "all" and porn in general remains a very rare occurence.

It could depend on time-of-day browsing habits. I've noticed NSFW stuff tends to appear more during the night time for the US and Europe. It's still a small minority of posts overall, though, and I don't click them enough to observe any trend in proportion of hentai in particular.

or depending of your instance? Or you still can see post from unfederated instances, I don't remember, but that wouldnt make much sense

Your instance would only matter if it is small-scale enough that users haven't subbed to the originating instances, if it has deliberately defederated from them, or if you are browsing by Local instead of All.

My feed is sorted by "hot" by default, whatever that means. I see tons on all. New NSFW communities are created daily and posted to by bots and beggars. The hentai seems a lot rarer than the regular porn.

you got NSFW turned on. It's hot.

This is the correct answer. I only ever see that sort of content when sorted by hot. If you go by active or top you will basically never see that sort of content. Anyone can upvote easily one-handed. It's very rare that anyone has much of anything to say about that sort of content or the ability to actually type it one-handed.
