What torrent client do you use and why? I use qBittorrent because:

What torrent client do you use and why?

I use qBittorrent because:
1. Free Software (GPL)
2. Light on resources
3. Never failed me once (no stalling or IO errors)
>>
Aria2:

1. Free software.
2. Super light on resources.
3. Never failed me.
4. Works in the command-line (I cannot be bothered by GUIs).
5. Literally just enter `aria2c <path to torrent file, magnet link, or any other kind of link you want to download> ...` and it will download it all to your current directory.
>>
Rtorrent

- no need to run xorg if i just want to download some music
- light as fuck

I use aria2 sometimes too. Ever used the web interface?
>>
>>52184332
Nope, didn't even know it had a web interface. Is it good?

I like Aria2 primarily because I can use it strictly from the command line. It is a set and forget kind of program, and I like that.

Yeah, it's alright.

deluge when i'm in windows, rtorrent otherwise.

i first started using rtorrent in my MINIMALIST EVERYTHING college days and now i'm so used to the keyboard commands i use them in other clients and wonder why nothing works.

used to use qbittorrent in windows, i switched to deluge for some dumb reason (i think i wanted it to be a daemon or some other bullshit) and i'm not in windows enough for me to switch back.
>>
>>52185052
Nothing wrong with deluge
>>
>>52184167
There we go. AGAIN.

uTorrent.
1- new to torrenting and it works fine.
>>
deluge on my homeserver, with rss and webui.
>>
Transmission
1. Came preinstalled on my NAS
2. WebUI

Also qBittorrent on my desktop.

>>52184167
μTorrent, would gladly use qBittorrent if it didn't stall.

>>52185558

Doesn't happen on a real OS.

qBittorrent
Free and reasonably fast
>>
qBittorrent because
1. has tags like µTorrent
2. is not actually µTorrent

would use Transmission otherwise.
>>
Halite
works fine for me
>>
qBittorrent, but I want to switch to Deluge thin client if only it wasnt for the RSS downloader being shit compared to qB

As a seasonal anime watcher, a good RSS downloader is essential.

I used baretorrent for a while and I really liked it. Last I checked the author took the site down and I haven't been able to find the source anywhere.

These days I'm just using qbittorent because it's okay enough. Not nearly as cozy as baretorrent though.
