I prefer a toothpick. Wood won’t scratch the metal or cause a short, but it’s still stiff enough to scrape any lint that’s stuck. And lint sticks a bit to the toothpick, so that helps get it out.

I just shave the end of a match down. It's flat and you can make it pretty thin easily.

Toothpick is absolutely the best solution for this. 3d printed cleaning picks are also usable but aren't as strong in my experience

Sometimes the toothpick tapers too quickly though and I have break it or shave a bit off to make it fit all the way into the port
