CAS Maple gives this as type [_Bernoulli]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime }+y \cot \left (x \right )-y^{4}=0} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (0\right ) = 0] \end {align*}

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.0 (sec). Leaf size: 5

dsolve([diff(y(x),x)+y(x)*cot(x)=y(x)^4,y(0) = 0],y(x), singsol=all)
 

\[ y \left (x \right ) = 0 \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.001 (sec). Leaf size: 6

DSolve[{y'[x]+y[x]*Cot[x]==y[x]^4,{y[0]==0}},y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 

\[ y(x)\to 0 \]
