Is it because I can only see people running this version?

I believe so.

wishlist + room searches + patience = slsk tolerance

I decided to download the latest version (157)... I managed to get it up and running but now there are hardly any people in the ILM chatroom, only one of the people on my Userlist are appearing and my previous downloads have stopped donwloading....Is it because I can only see people running this version?

yes. since 157 is a test version, you only see users also running 157.

yeah, it says here that you can run 157 alongside older versions to help them test, if you want:

I STRONGLY URGE everybody to UPGRADE to the test version, there may be fewer people using it, but the SEARCH results (at least for the minimal and electro house I'm searching for) are FAR BETTER and FASTER than 156.

No idea. Maintenance most probably. Unusually it hasn't been down for months.

Tried using Soulseek this morning. It would start up okay, run for about a minute and a half and then the process would just...die.
Decided it was time to see if there was a new version yet.
Turns out that there are two (shady-looking) websites out there offering either "Soulseek 158" or "Soulseek 2007".
Both are "we won't let you download until give us your credit card numbers" Nu-Napster wannabe.
What Gives?

Okay. It seems to be working correctly now. Thanks, BLPf

one year passes...

i have a question that i don't think i should start a new thread for, and with this being a recently revived soulseek thread, i guess i'll just ask here.

how much safer or unsafer (relativity to slsk or dc or something) does anyone here think it might be to download music posted on blogs and hosted on one-click servers? i do this all the time, and not knowing how safe or unsafe it is, i kind of have a lot of worry for it in the back of my mind.

if we start any kind of new discussion for this, and there's a better thread for it, just let me know.

I think the best thread for your question is probably this one

twelve years pass...

soulseek has been so completely flaky over the last week or so, whenever downloading one file will go and then the rest will just sit there and never start. i know enough that i'm not the only one having this problem but there's no acknowledgement of the problem or any eta on fixing it. i know soulseek is literally old enough to vote at this point and at some point i guess i should just let it go...
