@Trav1sty @bob I've had a bit of a look around and I've joined mastodon.club to see what it's like. I haven't tooted yet (I will *never* get used to that word) but it seems ok so far. I was able to get the same username, too.

I've had a recommendation for hex.bz as well, which I'll likely check out tomorrow. There's a UK based one as well I'll be having a look at, too.
