From my random writer and reader perspective? It's pretty varied.

Genderbender is by far the lion's share of what I read here. I came here following writers of that genre as they migrated away from where I used to read those stories.

The fact smut is allowed means people will often talk about it here. Both if you write it, or don't.

LBTQ-friendly narrative and cozy stories are quite common and appreciated here. Bless all the authors who write those.

Lots of Fanfic. Popular Anime and Harry Potter fanfic everywhere. So you'll also see a lot of "Harry Potter"-style story, but set in their own universe, with unique magic schools and spellcasting rules.

And of course, there's loads of Isekai, LitRPG, GameLit and cultivation stories.

For tropes, it's very difficult to tell because there isn't really any way to track them.

For genres, it's difficult to say anything specific because there's a fairly balanced distribution, unlike for example on Webnovel. The most popular are probably fantasy, isekai or similar, smut, harem, girl's love, gender bender, cultivation, gamelit... I'm not sure about specifics though.

I think it's an all-rounder site. As long as your story is good, readers will read it.

I would imagine smut with plot.
