What public indexers do people advise for audio?

I am using Lidarr, so the pool of options is somewhat limited. Naturally it would be preferable to have access to one or two private trackers, such as Redacted or Orpheus, but life is what it is (invites are understandably hard to come by).

    Appreciate your guidance, was completely unaware of this network before now, gives me Limewire vibes for some reason.

    My whole library is on offer, it isn’t too small, hopefully that will be enough to satisfy people.

    Probably will continue with torrents alongside, I do like the Lidarr interface.

      I’m hosting slskd and Lidarr on Unraid and pretty much only using slskd as a download client. That way I can use Lidarr to rename/organize/tag everything like I want. Only drawback is still having to download stuff from the slskd web ui and then go back to Lidarr, so some of the automation benefits are lost. But soulseek has provided better quality and access to the music i’m looking for, so it’s been worth it.

        Nice! I’ll ditch Nicotine+ in favour of this web client.

        I don’t mind some manual activities, the arrs have definitely spoilt me this past year or two, sometimes the hunt is half of the enjoyment.
