I am sharing about 25 albums on soulseek but my uploads are empty which as far as I know means nobody has tried to download anything from me. I don't have port-forwarding available to me, I use a VPN, and I am periodically offline. Is it really weird that nobody has downloaded anything from me or is that kind of normal?

Only people with open port can download from you if your port is not opened. If you have a small bandwidth you will have fewer uploads too. 25 albums are few albums. Try sharing more albums to get more chances of someone getting them. I will say that is normal to not have uploads in these conditions.
