The latter.

Not that the topics of homosexuality and homophobia are ever addressed in canon, but I have a hard time believing they'd be real issues in that setting, at least for most.

Well, at least the canon is a nice place to be even if the fandom isn't.

The canon is wonderful - one reason I love the show, and many others as well. It really can cheer me up to watch an episode or even just look at beautiful fanart and think about how peaceful life must be in Equestria...

There are nice parts to the fandom, too, but there's also a lot of shit. The pony porn is just gross and wtf and ew imo...apparently there are also a lot of people who can be giant dickbags but I haven't really run into any of those online. My involvement in the fandom is basically limited to viewing non-sexual fanart (some of which is really beautiful), listening to canon and fanmade music, and watching/talking about it with my friends irl. And sometimes looking at silly memes that one of my friends likes to show me.

There *is* one fic that I am partway through and really enjoying. It's a genfic with adventure and friendship and worldbuilding and it's really good. There are some romantic undertones but they aren't the focus of the story. But that fic was recced to me by a friend who also doesn't like pony porn (or any porn really) and I'm careful about going and looking for fic...with other fandoms, I like to read romance so I can search by pairing; with ponies I just want to read gen friendship fluff, and I don't get the urge to read fic as often anyway. Besides, if I stumble upon human porn by mistake it doesn't gross me out like that.
