ppl-i18n VS nicotine-plus

> Translation and localization costs money

If you have a fan base, you can leverage it to get some amount of translation done. A lot of users are happy to help the product they like get better. Granted, the quality will not be as good as the quality you get with professional translators.

The article also did not talk about the actual the translation process, which in the case of a product that is released but keeps getting updates, is not trivial.

There are tools that exists, but I personally decided to build a workflow around git, with a python scripts that generates a status of all the translations: https://github.com/jyaif/ppl-i18n#status

The downside is that contributors need to figure out how to use github to contribute. The upside is that it's free, you get auditability, versioning, and the barrier of entry may actually increase the quality of translations.

You better download and use Nicotine+, it's a frequently updated client for the soulseek platform.

The next version of Nicotine+ will turn the bitrate column into a quality column that shows the actual audio attributes provided. https://github.com/nicotine-plus/nicotine-plus/pull/2564

Completely agree. try this https://nicotine-plus.org

As has been said, K/s is an indication of transfer speed, and the default SLSK client does not keep track of transferred data for you. However, as there's never a bad time for a Nicotine+ plug, that does keep such stats, both for session and total transfer.

I don't know about Ventura, but why not give Nicotine+ a go. :)

Try out Nicotine+

Please be careful, there are some fake versions of the slsk client out there and they are confirmed malware. The official Soulseek website is http://www.slsknet.org/. There was a previous domain, but Nir (slsk's founder) lost control of it many years ago. I suggest you download a version of the client from this page or better yet download a copy of the third party client Nicotine+. N+ is updated far more regularly than the official slsk client (now 2+ years out of date), is less resource intensive and has better features.

The Nicotine+ repository has the most up to date protocol documentation here. This was originally documented in a couple of places but hadn't been updated in a long time.
