Hello,
I'm on Mac Os with SoulseekQt build 2024.6.30 (the latest build available for my Os, which is 12).
I've been experiencing this situation only for the last few months.
Ports on my router are open (also the obfuscated port) and from my router I see the green lights. Still the client when I check the ports tells me they are closed.
Nevertheless my upload works and people is downloading stuff from me regularly.
I haven't downloaded anything in a while, but from the people who's downloading from me, I get the message that "it looks like you're not sharing any files, please share before downloading from me".
The awkward thing is I get the message from people I'm uploading to, not from people I'm trying to download from (and anyway, as I said before, I haven't been downloading anything in a while).
What could it be?
Thanks 
Paolo

This is also happening to me. I just upgraded to 2026.4.30, curious if it's fixed. I'll report back after a few days, see if the messages go away.

Can confirm it's still happening. I get a "It looks like you're not sharing any files." message from users that are downloading from me.... interesting bug. Not a big issue though, I just clear the messages every once and a while.
