Really surprised there aren’t several available in the DNN Store. Any help would be much appreciated.

https://github.com/w8tcha/WatchersNET.TagCloud is fixed last april for DNN 9.
Haven't tested it myself but it looks solid.

Reason for the lack of these kind of modules is that the Tag cloud is not as popular is it used to be, So, when there is a major change in the core, vendors need to decide whether to pull the module from the store or invest and upgrade. When there are also free alternatives....

Thanks, but it does not look like it can source the cloud from the database.

Agreed.  I haven't seen a Tag Cloud on a website in a while.
