So I use a VPN when torrenting as per usual but with Soulseek I wish to share my music with others and that requires me to open a port. I have no problem doing so I just do not pay for a VPN that can do this at the current price I am paying. Is it possible/what are the chances of me getting in trouble ISP wise from using soulseek with no VPN. With where I live I would get in trouble with no VPN and torrents for clarity.
I see posts from years ago saying no just wondering if things have changed.
Wait then why does nicotine+ have a button when I right click on a peer, “users>Show IP Address,” which returns “IP address of user [REDACTED] is [REDACTED], port 40447 (CA/Canada)” (In case you’re wondering, I’m the one that redacted it. I’m looking at my most recent peer’s info).

Thanks. It isn’t an option in the official SoulSeek client so I never knew.

Oh yeah nic+ is way better. I didn’t know the official didn’t let you.
