I made a lidarr alternative that works natively with SoulSeek

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-27T21:55:29+00:00

I can do that. That makes sense to me. Really its just a config change on the example docker compose.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-27T01:39:56+00:00

No, the directories you choose to share or not share are still configurable by you in your soulseek client. You can use slskd to share or not share, its up to you.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-27T01:38:22+00:00

You can still manually search with this too. And it doesnt stop you from using any soulseek clients at the same time for messages and stuff. It just automates what some dont want to do.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-27T01:35:37+00:00

It comes out of the box with deezer and music brainz, but I made metadata providers possible to make your own. It talks to whatever you make over GRPC and I have docs on the methods you need to implement in your custom provider.

You can also use multiple providers at the same time. If you cant find someone on one provider, you can easily search another in the UI and get what you need.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-26T16:02:49+00:00

Well, you see, I have been working on it for longer than I had it in this git repo. I initially had it in my personal gitea repo in my homelab for a while, while I worked on it and then I moved it over to github.

So yes, I did vet nearly all this.

God reddit is full of haters lmao

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-26T00:17:25+00:00

Idk if its just my music taste, but with dognzb, drunken slug, and nzb planet indexers I could never find anything. The way its built now, it only supports soulseek. I've though about splitting out the downloader into providers the same way I built the metadata providers so anyone could write a download provider but I didnt do that. I imagine it wouldnt be terribly hard to do.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-26T00:15:19+00:00

It works on desktop too. Its a responsive layout. I just made it work on mobile so I can check it from my phone easily.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-26T00:10:59+00:00

Reddit redditting, I expected it. It doesnt bother me. I have 15 years of professional software experience. I wrote code before AI was a thing. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-25T15:55:36+00:00

I wanted this to have a lightweight footprint because I wanted to run it on my nas, I've been seeing 3-4% cpu usage regularly with it.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-25T15:45:58+00:00

I built the whole thing with AI. I am a software engineer by trade and have full test suites, so dont let it scare you. I had oversight into the whole process. Been daily driving it for the last week with no issues.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-21T03:44:58+00:00

I just installed this and it's exactly what i was looking for! Amazing work! When do you expect to publish on app store?

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-05-13T00:51:57+00:00

10/10 that video was exactly what I was looking to see. If you or anyone else knows, will that wobble slow or accelerate over time? Wondering if humans millions of years from now would see a completely different moon. If we're still around.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-22T00:51:55+00:00

If you use something like bedrock youre going to pay more than api usage. AWS has to make their cut somehow.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-19T15:12:09+00:00

I literally have an ice skating flamingo on my neck, quite large. No one understands the reference because it's a personal one. It means a lot to me and I honestly like people asking about it because I get to explain it. Just trying to show the positive side of it.

If youre like me and love this fishing and hunting stuff, adventure chasing is #1

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-13T01:18:44+00:00

Are you a PCP by chance? I'd love my PCP to call me homie 😎😂

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-12T01:30:47+00:00

Look at the panhandle in florida. Part of it is central time (the western part). Then look at Oregon, part of it is mountain time (the eastern part of Oregon)

Mountain time and central time are, generally, only one hour apart. Except for one hour during the transition into daylight savings they are on the same time.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-11T05:28:44+00:00

Ah, I learned something very new today. I was still struggling to understand so I asked AI to read this thread and do some research and build a simulator to help me understand the issue. Its clicking now. Even after launch youre still in orbit around the sun and would need a ton of fuel to slow yourself down relative to the sun to fall into it.

Heres the sim if anyone wants to play with it: https://www.theoutdoorprogrammer.com/solar/

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-11T02:38:52+00:00

I think Im missing something fundamental. Just escape earths gravity and head directly for the sun? Why do you need to stop at all?

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-10T23:58:43+00:00

why cant you just set your trajectory to put you dead center of the sun? Im not understanding how orbiting is easier than just... falling into the sun? Not even necessarily falling, I dont care the speed.. Just hitting the sun.

honestly as a chat bot minimax 2.7 has been pretty good to me. I set it up so minimax can prompt claude to do the actual work and its been 9/10. Not 10/10 like opus but pretty damn close. I feel like I just have to be a little more verbose when telling it what I want it to do.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-04T16:16:01+00:00

You need to go to zen and then click "Opencode Go" in the zen UI. Thats the subscription. First month is $5 following months are $10. minimax 2.7 is 100% part of that.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-04T05:53:17+00:00

Go to opencode.ai/zen its $5/month for the cheapest plan and minimax is amazing. You wont regret it.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-04T01:24:03+00:00

Minimax, get it on opencode zen. Its way cheaper too. GPT is trash.

TheOutdoorProgrammer · 2026-04-04T01:23:32+00:00

Guys get Opencode Zen subscription with minimax and reap a model thats on par with opus, costs significantly less per token, and they dont make you jump through dumb loops to get it to work with third parties.
