    Cool!

    Is there any good content on soulseek? The last time i downloaded music from that era, it was all 96kbps realplayer audio files totally mislabelled with the wrong artist

      Soulseek has had my back so many times when I need to find a really obscure track that can’t be found anywhere else.

        awesome! i’ll check this out!

        sorry for the n00b question, but why do i need to self host a persistent daemon and then connect to it using a webUI? can’t i just use a soulseek client on my local machine? i’m not really familiar with the architecture of soulseek.

          You can just use a soulseek client.

          However I have a build of this daemon running on a Qnap storage device, which is super handy just for ad-hoc music searches, and people can also peruse my music library 24/7.

    Soul seek is closed source software written by an Israeli, I wouldn’t install it on an air gapped machine
