So I use a VPN when torrenting as per usual but with Soulseek I wish to share my music with others and that requires me to open a port. I have no problem doing so I just do not pay for a VPN that can do this at the current price I am paying. Is it possible/what are the chances of me getting in trouble ISP wise from using soulseek with no VPN. With where I live I would get in trouble with no VPN and torrents for clarity.
I see posts from years ago saying no just wondering if things have changed.

Thanks

    Tailscale has the Funnel feature that doesn’t require an open port (well, it’s a UPnP port), and maintains an encrypted tunnel to your music server for anyone you decide to share it with.

    Alternatively you could get as many of your friends to use Tailscale itself to minimize the need for the Funnel feature (so anyone you know get them using TS, for the general sharing let it happen via Funnel).

    Tailscale is free, and easy to setup.

      Definitely looking into tailscale thanks for this.

      Edit: Did not solve original problem but was the solution to other things I have been doing. Unless I am mistaken I can not use the funnel feature to open ports the way that is needed.

      This is awesome, do you happen to know a tutorial for this? I have tried google but only some youtube videos that are worst than nothing
