i don’t have a convenient way to set up a proper dev environment for masto…

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

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

we’ve been using mastodon fairly quietly for a while now, keeping up with friends and posting over-off thoughts and such, often on private. you’re free to follow, but as we like to keep our home timeline small, we’ll probably not follow back

i’m tryïng to remember why we joined the fediverse in the first place my best guess is really just the same kind of motivation that led us to use (s/)qmail instead of postfix; we just like smaller weirder things. also we were lonely as FUCK

i know something about federation doesn’t allow username changes that remote servers don’t see as a new account

i am actually running a qmail fork in production in 2021

yeah i could just use pinafore still but i want to actually use local only posts and such
