Is Soulseek safe?
(programming.dev)
I saw another post asking how to set up Soulseek and, at first glance, it looks like those old P2P file sharing platforms, like eMule, Kazaa or Limewire.
As someone who used those during their peak, I'm well aware of the risks of getting unwanted stuff, not to mention that you're fully exposed within the network.
Does Soulseek deal with those issues, or are users exposed to those risks as well?
It should be, because it is on the FMHY megathread, and it's fairly reputable.
Edit: I didn't real the question fully, but I presume that it should be safe if you are cautious as normal. Of course you will be exposed to malware, but it probably will require you to download it before it works.
