Hi there!

I've had a Mastodon account in the "mstdn.social" instance for more than a year. But since today I cannot log in in that account, neither via app (Tusky) nor in my laptop browser.

But there's more: I can't even open anything related with that instance without getting an ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT screen.

I'm creating a new account in other instance, but when I try to migrate my old account data it says that my old account cannot be found. And now I'm wondering if they are having problems or if that instance is definitely shut down.

Is anyone else having the same issues? How can I know for sure if the instance is being deleted?

Thank you so much in advance.

I still see posts from there from 4hrs ago on my instance.

It's probably a DNS error.
