Nice. Personally, I prefer Nicotine+, fopnu, and EiskaltDC++ in that order. I can find almost anything within those programs themselves, and I don't have to worry about whether or not it's seeded, unlike with BitTorrent. For trending things that are sure to be seeded, I use btdig.com or solidtorrent.to.
Do you not worry about getting viruses and what not when doing that? Or do you have a list of trusted users, that are the only ones you download from?
I only use open source so I don't have the need to download software. And you can't get a virus in an audio or video file. So I'm not worried about viruses. I'm worried about users with pedo, rape or other illegal content, but I have all those blocked, just in case I download a whole folder and get a surprise.
Thanks for the response! I had a look at it, and it seems really good, but I would be quite worried about viruses, simply because this is just straight up P2P, with no verification. It's great, but I can't trust it. I didn't even consider the pedo aspect of this. I'd very much like to avoid it if I can just happen upon shit like that.
Soulseek is still active? I thought it died with KaZaA and Morpheus.
Yup, Ive used Nicotine+ recently to snag a few songs
That's good to know! Thanks!
There is even a working Android app - Seeker.
Whaaaaa
