SoulseekQT and Nicotine+ are on desktop. You can find Seeker-Android on IzzyOnDroid or github.

Keeping FLAC is such a hassle, it's not even worth.

I'm not advocating piracy as a way to support artists, but a way to fight against the big corps/streaming platforms/the system that just take the majority of revenue for themselves while hurting both the consumers and the creators. As I replied to other comments, I try to look for ways to directly support artists individually whenever I can.

Yessir

The first time I heard this song

https://soundcloud.com/blacklabelnsd/mastadon-rip (MASTADON - RIP)

I was blown away at how insane it is, like how could anyone ever make something like this at all is bewildering to me. The song structure and sounds didn't even make sense to me at first.

But now this genre of music is the thing I love the most. This song is my absolute favorite of all time.

Obligatory Dwarf Fortress (I'm a DF simp). But also:

Against The Storm

Clanfolk

Foundation

Going Medieval

KeeperRL (This is a weird one)

Heyyyy it's my fellow dubstep enjoyer! Yeah those vinyl exclusive is such a pain.

It use P2P network so I don't think you need VPN for it...? IDK I'm not an expert.

Get on it my friend!

I have people download my files on soulseek/nicotine+ daily. Plus anyone that would pirate music probably already know how to rip it straight from streaming services.
