Hey, I'm Reth.

You can find me on Cohost, social media is overrated anyway.

This version of my webpage is based on the JOHN DOE template.

About

My name's Niko Voidlynx, I go by Reth online. I'm non-binary and use they/them pronouns. Unashamedly a furry, still figuring out my fursona. I'm from Russia and live in a UTC+5 timezone.

Currently studying for Russian-English translation work (and I'm pretty good at it). You could call me an Apple Enthusiast, I guess. Proudly a macOS user (OpenCore Ventura on a ThinkPad).

I enjoy indie video games, metal and alt-rock music, and a few podcasts. Also, I believe that piracy is a God Given Right, which is why I have a home server where I store all my music.

Work

I'm not proud of my earlier work, to be honest. So here's more-or-less recent stuff that I've made.

• Relay FM Feed Bot

  It's usefulcitation needed to have posts about new podcast episodes in a chronological timeline right on your social media. So I've built this bot in 2 days or so.

• FurCode v2

  An update of the original FurCode spec, 25 years later, modernized.

• NMF Audio Archive (Build 15.0)

  Tagged MP3 archive for the OST of the No More Future visual novel.

Recommendations

A list of a things I personally use/enjoy, and would like others to know about. In no specific order, of course. This list will expand in the future.

Podcasts

• Upgrade

  Every week, Myke Hurley and Jason Snell chat about tech and it's impact on our lives. Average episode runtime: 90 minutes.

Software

• Rectangle

  You cannot use a Mac without Rectangle. This app is a lifesaver, because I love keeping most my windows tidy. And this app makes it incredibly simple, for free.

• Obsidian

  Probably the best note-taking (and writing) app out there. I don't take notes much, but if I ever have to - Obsidian is my choice. Extensible, relatively light, free, crossplatform.

Media

• Severance (TV)

  Probably one of my favourite shows ever. It's like a dystopian version of The Office. 10/10, must watch without spoilers.

• Dayseeker (Music)

  A really cool post-hardcore band. They probably have one of the highest relistenablity ratios per discography size. Sleeptalk is definitely a must-listen.

Contact

I prefer contact by Email, you can write me over at [email protected]. You can also contact me via Telegram, but I will ignore or block you if you just text me "Hello" with no follow-up.

In case you want to send me money, you can do it via Boosty or DonationAlerts, due to The Current Circumstances.

Woah, a hidden section! I'm predicting that Elon is going to die before 2025. This idiot is eventually going to poison himself or something. I'm gonna make the day he dies a personal holiday, same with any other billionaire. Bezos, Zuck, whoever else.
