Absolutely, that's why I've put "moved" in quotation marks.
Obviously doing so currently requires a hard switch from one GNU social
instance to another; we simply left a note on our old account where people
can find us now. This isn't perfect (esp. for someone who cases about keeping
their followers) but I think it's the only option with the recent version of
GNU social, though it should be technically possible to forward our old
account URL to the new one if we only had access to the old GNU social
instance.
In retrospective we should have set up our own instance from the start, it
takes only 30 minutes.

Both websites have a terrible uptime. That's why we wrote an old-school,
physical letter to them since we also weren't able to reach them by any other
means of communication. What's a bit odd is that they say on their website
that they're "solely funded by donations" but don't accept help, which I've
offered on two occasions.
