I've been at @va2lam@mastodon.nz. It's pretty niche but not billionaire-owned (like here!) and federates with other servers.

The Mastodon instance I was on unexpectedly disappeared. I opened an account on another server, but I don't have a list of all the accounts I was following on the old one, so I haven't bothered to do much with the new one.

That sucks. I should probably store the list of accounts that I'm following.
