I'm using SoulSeek. Is there any way to speed up the process?

I saw someone mentioning "kew" in another comment thread the other day.

Here's a link:

https://github.com/ravachol/kew

I haven't tried it yet so I don't have feedback of my own. But on the surface seems pretty great as an indexation of one's digital music library.

Well, that seems really neat. No Windows support, though, so I'll check back in when I eventually finally definitely jump to Linux...

If you haven't already, spin up a VM or partition and start using it. I cutover this year, and I used a new disk with Bazzite and I still technically dual boot, but I boot that windows partition less than once a month at this point. But the more you use it and get the feel for it, the easier the transition becomes.

It's really just storage space that's the limiting factor for me. I'm already uninstall/reinstall juggling a few games as it is so carving a partition to play with Linux hurts.

At some point I'll grab a third SSD and make half of it a linux partition or something.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

At that point, just use the SSD for your Linux install and not worry about windows windows-ing and fucking up your boot loader.

I have no need for this but read the description and am perplexed how this should work. How would it distinguish between folders and files with just one word, I am intrigued.

Also, they seem to be on codeberg so leaving that link here in case someone prefers that https://codeberg.org/ravachol/kew
