Despite the drawbacks of account migration[*], mastodon.cloud is sunsetting so I think it's time I pick up stakes and look for a new Mastodon instance. Top contenders so far are hachyderm.io (well established, generative) and publicinterest.town (niche and cozy), since they seem to be run by ethical community-minded geeks. Does anyone have another Mastodon instance they'd like to recommend?

(Note I'm not using a hashtag here, because I'm interested in what the people who are specifically choosing to follow me have to say.)
(Also I said mastodon.cloud is sunsetting, but I'm not authoritative about that... I seem to recall an announcement about that a while back, but I can't find it now. At the very least they're not keeping up with new versions, and 4.2 has some features I'm really missing.)
