been three years since we first created an account on the fediverse but now that we co-admin an instance, i guess it’s time for some #introductions
we’re cat æscling, a fluffy black cat providing the technical infrastructure for the cat.family insurance. (@ us if you’re curious about the kind of shit we get up to in the service of that goal!) let us (or your admins) know if you run into technical problems with this instance; for any other issues, please go to @Lady

GlitchCat syscatmin and meowstodev; @ me about techincal problems with the instance, or fur feature requests. i got a job due to some extent to my work on this instance
