Oh yes. Thems were the daze. A CD compilation of your fav choons that you recommend to someone you want to shag.

-Wait, it's just slowdive's souvlaki LP

That's still my life. My car stereo just broke though, so I may not be burning any more CDs for a while.

SoulSeek!

What a flashback! Another bird I loved... Especially the login bird sound it made πŸ•ŠοΈ πŸ’•

I even grew up with floppy disks but I don’t know this bird. Well, I never owned a Windows PC. Maybe that is the reason why?

Might be... SoulSeek was a P2P file sharing (mostly for underground music) and chatroom back in early 2000s... Probably Windows only IDK 😐

Cool place it was

There are/were unofficial slsk clients for Linux too

You might be shocked, but soulseek is still alive and kicking.

I'd say it's working better than ever, because of the bandwith available today leeds to less incomplete downloads that you may never complete, because the other side just vanishes.

This makes me happy, will have to go and investigate it again πŸ˜ƒ

Holi πŸ„... I wonder what my username (even which email) I had there! I remember fellow usernames from other people like "saloca" "GeorgeKaplan" but not my own... 20 years man 🫨

Well, I don't plan to doxxx myself any time soon πŸ«₯

Soulseek v much alive, best place to go for music, p good for older films, even has some eBooks (obv libgen is the place for that), typefaces.

It's not "a huge place" by any means, but it's still a good source if you need it. Probably because true music hoarders never left. BTW there are audiobooks too.

I don't see the Bowie channel there anymore 😭

Followed, zapped ⚑

Wow. I feel old now.

Thanks for sharing, brought back cherished memories :)
