What are the best places to dl FLAC music?
not everything needs to be a dockerized web app for god's sake. just use Nicotine+
Easier to keep shares online 24/7 with a dockerised we app vs a desktop application I need to be logged in to a system for it to run. Best of both worlds would be a Nicotine+ like desktop fronted app that talked to the server component, but I don't think there is such a ui app for slskd.
Sorry, just poking at ya. Having these apps in docker does have its use cases, though. I run it in docker on my NAS since that’s where all my media files are, and I like for it to always be available to other downloaders even if my desktop is off.
The link I supplied has docker as an "option".
You just be you, though, for god's sake.
rutracker always has legit flac rips, some on soulseek can be fake
They are rebranding to a new website it is faster imo I don't like how when u unzip the files there is no parent folder however you have to make that.
Edit: New site https://lucida.to/
There's discord groups but they're hard to find because of snitches. I got in early so I have some access now but it's hard for newcomers
FNP, TL, ST are good. Any general purpose PT is nice since you're probably never getting into RED or OPS anyways haha. Like me :(
Private trackers. I think common ones. If you search them with "tracker" you'll probably find them.
Another way that needs a credit card:
Make a disposable e-mail, sign up for a month trial for Qobuz or Tidal and use a program like StreamRip to just download high-quality music straight from the platform.
When the trial ends, just make a new e-mail and repeat.
Someone mentioned Lucida here, which is more straightforward, but I found it slow and often failing. Once you're signed up, downloading is easy and it's the easiest way to get more obscure stuff in high quality.
This. Physical media is awesome to own, and ripping extremely high-quality copies is actually pretty easy, just time-consuming.
I recommend EAC (Exact Audio Copy). It's free and there are some awesome guides online for setting it to get the best quality for your rips.
Just use SoulSeekQt and filter for .flac, if the song you're looking for was ever released on flac it'll be there
SLSK, private trackers, public trackers, random websites, open directories, ripping your own CDs.
Is there any site that gives you all the different music services URLs, like a searcher that makes it easier?
The best way for me that I found is using Soulseek, sadly it's proprietary but it's really nice as a lot of people share on it
