NEW MACOS BUILD!

Submitted by Nir on Tue, 02/16/2021 - 10:21

After some positive feedback from users I posted a new build that should work
better on newer versions of macOS. It's built with a newer version of Qt, has a
new UI style that (in my opinion) looks much better and fixes the cut-off text
in tab names, is more compatible with macOS dark mode and is notarized to get
past gatekeeper on Big Sur! Find it on the download page or get it right here:

SoulseekQt-2021-2-6.dmg

FIX FOR INVISIBLE TEXT ON MACOS CATALINA

Submitted by Nir on Mon, 01/06/2020 - 12:09

If you're not seeing the SoulseekQt UI text with Catalina's new dark mode, this
build should fix it. If no one runs into any problems with it I'll post it to
the download page soon. You can discuss it here.

NEW 64-BIT WINDOWS BUILD

Submitted by Nir on Mon, 07/22/2019 - 14:41

If you're on Windows, you share a lot of files (or browse a lot of shares) and
the client often crashes for you, there's a good chance it's just running out of
memory. Thanks to forum user David H. for persevering through weeks of trying
out different builds and sending dozens of crash reports until we finally
figured out it was all just a memory problem. Bear in mind that even though the
64-bit build can use as much memory as it needs, it *will* use more memory.
There are a lot of pointers flying around, and those are now all double the
size.

SOULSEEK AND PAYPAL: THE NIGHTMARE CONTINUES

Submitted by Ortali on Mon, 07/30/2018 - 17:23

Hey guys,

We've posted a detailed account of our trouble with PayPal, and the EFF's
efforts to help us over the last few months. You can read about it and discuss
it here:

SOULSEEKQT LOWMEM EDITION PHASE 1 - USER SHARES

Submitted by Nir on Tue, 01/30/2018 - 21:33

So I'm not entirely sure how much of a problem SoulseekQt memory consumption is
for people out there, but it's something that comes up pretty regularly on the
forum and I figured I'd try to push through the horror of trying to refactor
some of the most sensitive, complicated parts of the client code and see how far
I can get.

[UPDATED 11/21] LOTS OF CHANGES TO DOWNLOAD FOLDER MANAGEMENT, QT 5.9

Submitted by Nir on Fri, 08/11/2017 - 14:32

I'm itching to release this build as it already fixed a lot of issues for quite
a few users, but since it includes changes to very sensitive download folder
management code I'm a little wary of releasing it just yet. I'm hoping you guys
can try it out and let me know if you run into any new problems or whether it
works well for you after some time. Changes include:

[FIXED!] PROBLEM WITH AUTOMATIC ACTIVATION OF PRIVILEGES

Submitted by Nir on Sat, 07/29/2017 - 20:28

The issue is fixed! We received word from Paypal that the engineering issue was
resolved on their end, and there have been no unactivated donations for the last
2+ days. Thank you for your patience and support!

SOULSEEK DISCUSSION GOOGLE GROUP

Submitted by Nir on Mon, 05/23/2016 - 11:35

For a while now I've been having to manually approve posts and most comments to
stem the tide of constant spam that's been hitting the forum for as long as I
can remember. This has not been ideal, especially of late since I've been so
very busy with work, days would often go by before I could tend to the approval
queue. Making our users wait that long just to be able to participate in a
discussion is not practical, it's not fair, and it's not conducive to a healthy
dialog.

SOULSEEK PAYPAL ACCOUNT REINSTATED!

Submitted by Ortali on Tue, 02/09/2016 - 14:07

Thanks entirely to Rainey Reitman, the EFF's Activism Director, we are very
happy to announce that our PayPal account has been restored!!!

As the EFF has helped us many times in the past, it seemed natural to reach out
to Rainey, who has written a number of EFF blog posts specifically about PayPal
and credit card companies. We want to send a shout-out to Rainey Reitman and the
EFF for all that they do.

And we thank all of our users for standing by us during this difficult time.
Thank you so much for your support!

DONATIONS, STRIPE, AND OTHER THINGS

Submitted by Ortali on Mon, 10/26/2015 - 12:19

As some of you already know, PayPal suddenly and unceremoniously decided to end
a very friendly working relationship with us that lasted 14 years (and included
the occasional personal christmas card.) We have asked repeatedly for an
explanation of this behavior, but have been stonewalled at every turn, and have
received only form emails telling us that we needed to be “pre-approved” for an
account. When we asked what we need to do to be pre-approved, they emailed back
and said that they are “not granting pre-approval at this time”.
