I swapped to slskd from Nicotine+ recently and am pretty happy with it. I don’t usually download from the soulseek network much but I like having my media available for sharing, so I really like slskd’s headless running option. Also it automatically picks up on changes when files are added to or deleted from the shared folders. With N+ I had to set up another container in docker specifically to restart the N+ container on a schedule to trigger a rescan of the shares.

    I mainly use it for music. There's a lovely plugin called tubifarry that makes lidarr useful for me. Even works through gluetun with port forwarding!

    I get spotty results on soulseek for my music searches because I have a personal preference for .FLAC files which don't seem to be as frequently available (or they're .FLAC files converted from lower quality formats). I use qobuz-dl for my music downloads, which then get shared to soulseek (along with my tv shows, movies, and books), so I guess I'm at least helping to cover the gap I identified for my use-case. Soulseek comes in useful for me when it comes to ebooks, though. I've gotten most of mine off of there, I think.

    I have just recently got it set up so I haven't had too much time to use it yet. From a few test searches after that, I was able to pull flac each time as that is my preference as well. I'll keep your suggestion in mind moving forward, thanks!
