When I try to get into tinycat I get a message - when I am on my own computer or the library computer - any suggestions? :
error message 526 on the page Invalid SSL certificate Error code 526

>2 gracelib: Hi @gracelib, I'm glad to hear it resolved and very sorry for the issue. We were experiencing difficulty with Cloudflare on Friday, which is what you saw. Luckily our developers resolved it, but I'm so sorry it got in your way!

In the same vein, we suffered from a more internal issue on Saturday morning and then again on Sunday evening. These were unrelated to the issue you posted about, but also caused the sites to go down for some time. Not a great weekend for site health—I'm very sorry for the interruptions! We're updating our internal systems to get better at catching issues like this as they occur.

I appreciate you checking in here and your patience!
