It's pretty easy to use. The only challenge for newcomers is setting up port-forwarding, since some users won't share their collection with people who have their ports blocked. You don't have to open your ports or share your music collection, but it is leeching and considered a dick move by some.
Alright so I already had a quick look, sooner than I intended. Got too excited.
At a glance tho I love what I see. There's an official nicotine+ package in the Pacman repository for Arch Linux so that's a plus. I forwarded the port with no issue, I got a decent network setup so I got fixed internal IPs and could forwarded the port securely as possible.
It also looks like it plays nicely with how I got my NAS setup and how I mount files internally to my PC. This could be a bit of a rabbit hole and a great learning experience for me. Thanks to everyone for the suggestion/tips.
I'll love to self-host this down the line on my server so I can better provide everyone with my files even when my usual PC isn't on.
Soulseek via webui, docker
Thank you! I run Docker on my homeservers so when I next tinker it's going on. :)
