about me

some gay 18 year old synth computer enjoyer with adhd (and probably autism), with access to the internet and nothing to do. i like big round things.

i consider myself to be a Professional Computer Toucher™. in both soulless boxes running either corporate or free software and robot-aligned beings (you know, synths or protogens. love em!).

i'm a nerd into free and open source software and privacy stuff. i'm not a programmer or anything, though. i've tried, didn't work out.

also a nerd into Linux stuff, mostly touched Arch and a little bit of NixOS but have found to stuck with Fedora.

enthusiast in open, decentralized and federated projects, networks or services. favorites include the fediverse and listenbrainz.

recently started to run my own services on this domain, synth.download :)

i absolutely despise corporations and capitalism with every single fiber in my living synthentic body

very much a furry connoisseur and into other robot beings like protogens and other fellow synths. being a human fucking SUCKS. as a side note, nothing is normal. everything is weird. don't shit on or callout people for being into something "weird" assuming it's nothing immoral, illegal, or dangerous/harming themselves or others.

Certified™ idiot (i think this one is obvious)

usually pretty tired and sometimes full of ideas that i just can't bring myself to execute.

"fun" facts

• my profile pictures used to be random characters from different types of media that i would just grayscaled. ever since then, i realized that i've very much enjoyed being a synth instead.
• i used to have an inside joke with some old friends where i loved cheese. 🧀
• originally starting going online when i was young and my only method of getting wifi was by using my netbook in the kitchen and connecting to a nearby stores local wifi connection.
• joined fedi around 2020 or so, originally on mas.to before closing shop and moving to types.pl which has a nice local community, before moving to miruku.cafe for a short while before finally landing at lea.pet.
• i prefer lowercase when possible. it just feels more natural.
• i am still terrible at spelling. still made mistakes even when making this site. online dictionaries my beloved.
