The megathread post here hasn't been updated in a while. The last ARL expired Sept. 10th. That page does link to a telegram post, but it's also expired.

I don't have telegram, but by incrementing the last few numbers in the URL I was able to find a more recent ARL, but this is a hit-or-miss technique.

I was thinking about getting a telegram acct to follow Firehawk, however telegram works, but I is there a simpler way? I know of YAMS and Lucida, but Deemix is really nice.

Many users here speak the joys of soulseek, but I'm under the impression Deezer would have a higher base-standard for quality.

EDIT: Solved, thanks to this comment. The ARLs list isn't in numerical order. You can search for 2025 (or 2099 even) and find some ARLs that are still active. Thanks everyone!

The Firehawk52 guide has some ARLs that expire in 2099. I never had issues with them. Just hit Ctrl + F, search for 2099 and you're good to go.

Btw the regular ARLs are being updated, search for 2025 and you'll get some results.

WHOA. Yeah ok, I just thought that they were organized by date. This is the way. Thank you!

Does country matter? I always go for the US ones bc I haven't been sure.

Some content might not be available in certain countries because of licensing/legal issues.

I just pay for my own ARL when I want to use deemix (I had no idea people were sharing ARLs).

Yeah, there was a big thread on it not too long ago, which is what got me started down that road. But that thread is pretty old now so I didn't want to resurrect it.

Hihi, glad it motivated you🤭

I'll plug another post I made this summer, to help you with spotify compatibility on deemix:

Btw, I see those Arls last for a day or so now (at least if you download stuff), but I think they get updated very often :)

I honestly just pay for deezer. Any song I want to DL with Deemix for 12$ a month? Absolutely yes. Plus, my wife uses that account to stream on her phone, so it's a win win

Deezer can have better quality than Soulseek, but I've had a lot of success on Soulseek though. If you doubt a DL, you can always spectrum analyze it to check for obvious fake files

Cool, but all of those alterative clients still require ARLs. They even link to the same ARL page I linked to above, the one with outdated ARLs.
