I'm new to Soulseek, just downloaded a bunch of music I like. I want to not be a leach and give back to the community by sharing the things I downloaded, however Mullvad doesn't allow port forwarding. Is it possible to share files on Soulseek without having open ports? Does everyone who shares stuff on Soulseek use no VPN/a VPN with port forwarding?
not using a VPN isn't really an option for me, Germany REALLY hates people trying to share files
The US (for me) does as well but the only way I believe they can know if you are sharing files are if they search for those same files go to your profile and then get the IP from there. So it is possible but in my experience has not happened others experience may vary.
