I often reply under Japanese posts, and I always assume users will use a translator as I do, but maybe in the context of a Japanese instance or conversation this may look rude?

Okay where do you even see Japanese posts?

Misskey has a massive Japanese population in part because it was written by Japanese speakers.

Mastadon seems to have a lot. I don't see much outside of it personally.

Misskey has more of it. In fact, the second biggest fediverse instance is Japanese, mostly filled with illustrator, comic artist, photographers, gamers, and other otaku culture enthusiast.

Before mastodon.social, the biggest fedi instance is also Japanese, but it was different instance run by corporation (now seems to be abandoned after being sold to another corpo).
