Is it possible to bind Soulseek(or equivalent) to VPN? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hi all!

Looking to get back into pirating more music. Torrent sites don't have a large selection. Other options have poor quality.

I've been looking into alternatives like Soulseek, but can't find how to bind that to VPN like I do with Qbit.

I've heard the risks are lower, but I'd still prefer to bind to VPN. I know from experience that kill switches are unreliable. Is this possible in soulseek or something similar (preferably OSS and with ok sound quality).

I've read the FAQ, megathread and done a search and didn't find anything.

You can with "Nicotine+", which is an alternative client for soulseek.

Nicotine+ has such a weird UI

It is pretty much completely customizable in settings… Everything from button/bar placement to color. You can even completely remove items.

Nicotine+ has the most efficient UI! I Hella like it
