⚠️ Do not move your account to mastodon.cloud. If you know someone already on mastodon.cloud you might want to suggest they move to a different server.

-Mastodon.cloud's admin hasn't posted since Feb 2023
-There doesn't seem to be any moderation, really awful bigotry is still there months after being reported
-The server software is very outdated and full of unpatched security holes
-Because of all the above, many other servers have defederated mastodon.cloud

I don't know, but generally when something web based gets pwned hard enough, sysadmins typically start to raise stink about it. If I spot port scanners or obvious stuff being run against the systems I maintain, I might fire an e-mail to their ISP's abuse address, depending on where they from. With China, Russia etc. I don't bother, US and Europe likely, the Nordics, very likely.
