Yeah it's basically limewire but still alive and actually good lol.

Understandable, super easy to set up fwiw, just install nicotine, create your acct, create a share folder with a download folder inside it, tell the program where those are on your pc, and the "hard" part (which you said "server," so you'll be fine) forward a port and tell nicotine what it is in the settings. Bang, done, download away.

Should work fine through a VPN as long as everything is forwarded right ya?

Also appreciate the in depth explanation/help! I'm already like 3000% more active on Lemmy than I ever was in 10 years of reddit lol

Yeah. My vpn just ended port forwarding, too, but it says it's still open on the client, who knows lol.

No prob! And hell yeah lol.
