Starting to use "soulseek" do I need VPN

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...

Could somebody complain to your ISP? Yes.

Is this likely to happen? No.

I’ve been using slsk for about 20 years, and I’ve never gotten a warning about it. If I start torrenting, I’ll get a warning from my ISP tomorrow. I think that it’s considered too obscure to be worth monitoring.

I’m not aware of any neo-Nazis (literal or otherwise). I don’t spend any time in the chat rooms, though.

I was going to try to set up Ampache so that I could access my entire music library at work.

Which one? The lemmy.ml community sucks because there are so many tankies, but according to the Community-Browser there are at least half a dozen other general meme groups.

I think if somebody could benefit from it, I’m going to recommend it. Taking the attitude of “You’re a normie, so obviously you can’t appreciate Linux like I do” is condescending.

constantly telling others they should “Just Use Linux” is no different than a stereotypical vegan trying to get everyone to go vegan or a craft beer snob using it as their only personality trait

Okay, wow. So what you’re saying is actually much worse than what I originally thought. You believe that saying “Torturing animals is wrong” is the same as saying “Craft beer is better than mass-produced beer”.
