What's the best alternative to this spyware for Windows?
Deluge?
Transmission-qt?
qBittorent?
Something else?
Pls help /g/
>>53624139
PicoTorrent
BitComet
>>53624139
qBittorrent
In my experience, qBit and Deluge stop working after a certain while.
I'm still using uTorrent 2.2.1, because of old habits. Transmission-qt should be pretty solid, and has a lot of nice features, or so I've heard.
Deluge > qBittorrent

Tried to use qBittorrent, hated it. Just use µTorrent 2.2.1 it's the most stable version without ads, spyware and shit like that.

Deluge has always been nice to me
Looking for a client that i can run on my ubuntu server.
Should support:
- WebGUI
- RSS filtering & autodownload
- Downloading the finnished torrents dirctly via the webGUI from the server to my PC
Any Ideas? I couldn't find any rtorrent plugins that cover it all.
>>53624383
That's because Deluge is nice to everyone
now this is something retarded, transmission classifies peers as seeds as long as they have data that i can download, for example i have torrent at 10%, there are 100 niggas that have 40% completed, there are zero people that have 100% completed, now guess how many seeds is transmission showing to me. thats right, all of them, 100 seeds. thats bullshit, i will never finish this fucking torrent because there are no seeds at all, fuck you transmission
>>53624393
Deluge.
>>53624367
light as fuck
and speeds up downloads by at least 10% because proprietary bullshit
>>53624199
STALLED
For me, Deluge works most of the time. However, I recently had to start using an old version of μTorrent again recently because Deluge often can't download games. (.bin files cause errors, μTorrent avoids that by adding .!ut to file extension)
>>53624493
Can't find any RSS plugins that are accessable via WebUI.

You could write one, maybe. But what I would do is write some scripts.
For example, a script that enters in an RSS feed for [Subs] horrible moeshit 01 (720p).mkv manually. A bash script or something.
I wrote an autoit script that turns a torrent filename into an RSS feed entry in the deluge client.
I could theoretically run this remotely if I ran the script over telnet with an argument being the input filename.
If bash is more your speed you would go for editing where the plugin stores the RSS feed data manually.
I'm actually in a position where the RSS feed downloader doesn't even fucking work so I'm writing my own.
>>53624227
Same here, I keep trying different clients which is a HUGE mess in trying to keep things seeded. Having to merge all my torrents etc.
I keep coming back to uTorrent 2.2.1 though, I don't see how qBittorrent, Deluge and others still have so many problems while ancient utorrent versions still work perfectly.
>>53625049
As for my RSS feed not working, it works sometimes but most of the time it does not. I have a feeling it has something to do with the VPN I'm using, as the source of the torrent files is cloudflare protected, the VPN IP is captcha-walled to cloudflare servers since shitlords keep abusing the fucking IPs. This means that in my theory; the RSS plugin fetches the feed, finds the torrent, tries to add it with a http request or something, then instead of getting a .torrent file, gets a 'pls enter captcha' html file.
If anyone has resolved this without resorting to writing their own fucking RSS reader that runs on a seperate computer that adds torrent files to a samba-shared folder monitored for .torrents by deluge then please share it since I'd very much like to save some effort here
Gonna try IP hopping to find one that isn't captcha-walled but this isn't a permanent solution
>>53624139
libtorrent clients are prone to a bug that causes torrents to stall permanently. This would affect Deluge, qBittorrent, Halite, and anything else based on libtorrent.
Transmission-qt is a rather sloppy and incomplete port. It gets the job done, but the lack of working components under the hood may or may not bother you. There's an official port in the works, but it's only in beta stages and won't be stable. It's also not compatible with XP and earlier.
Taxati is a good consideration, but it has a fugly GUI that you can't do much with. This is my choice as far as Windows systems are concerned.
>>53625149
>the VPN IP is captcha-walled to cloudflare servers
Confirmed. Did a little testing and some IPs work while some don't- the ones that don't are all cloudflare blacklisted.
Not sure what to do now though. Will probably see if the captcha-solved information is stored in cookies and therefore able to be used with yaRSS2
>>53624139
Deluge is awful. It gives me no options to provide labels, no shutdown/sleep option if downloading finished.
>>53624689
What fresh meme is this?
>>53625546
Here's your (You). Hope, you like it!
So what exactly is the issue with uTorrent?
>>53625318
My attempts:
Using the cookies function of YaRSS2 there has been no success.
Strange since I really thought this would work; cloudflare puts two cookie entries when you complete their 'blacklisted IP' captcha: __cfuid and cf_clearance
Entering both of these into YaRSS2 had no effect on the torrent grabbing.
Sigh
On the upside, relevant to the thread I found the place where the settings are stored; on windows at least the RSS entries are stored in ~\Appdata\Roaming\Deluge\yarss2.conf
You could write a bash script (or a bash script that locally runs a small program) that can turn a filename like "[Sub] Dumb haremshit 01 [720p].mkv" into a entry in yarss2.conf, turning it both into a name "Dumb Haremshit" and a regex entry "\[Sub\] Dumb haremshit \d+ \[720p\].mkv"
Not too difficult.
If I ever get around to writing it I'll share it.
>>53625720
Although problem number 1 is that the plugin doesn't re-read the config file until deluge is restarted.
And deluge restarts like someone in a warm bed in a cold room on a sunday
>>53624139
I usually don´t torrent but had to install a torrent client some days ago to download the sxsw torrent.
First tried deluge.
Downloads started out ok, but slowed down over time until I paused and resumed downloading. The ui reacted very slow, sometimes freezing for several seconds.
Several times a torrent completely disappeared from the download list for fuck knows what reason.
Uninstalled that shit and got Transmission-qt.
Import of in progress torrents worked with no problems, downloads and uploads were fast and all was good.
I don´t know if there are any better clients, but transmission works ok for me
Oh by the way you don't need a webUI with deluge, you can client:server it by turning off classic mode.
Is bittorrent bad?
halite
bittornado
>>53624139
why is it spyware?
>>53624139
qBit
μTorrent 2.2.1
>>53626266
Bitcoin miner in the software.
>>53626297
That was removed after I thought?
>>53624537
You are a faggot, I've been using qbit for months now, that never happened to me.
Actually, before that I used the latest Bittorrent (cracked, cant stand the ads) and got stalled torrents with tons of seeders all the time (worked fine for a while), got tired of that shit and installed qbit, the only "downside" is that the interface its uglier but if you stop being a faggot and use it for a week, you get used to it and works like a charm.
I used utorrent 2.2.1 too for some time before too, but I prefer qbit now (all of this on Windows, didnt't use it much on Linux).
>>53624139
Windows is spyware by itself. Remove it.

First link I open

as in doesn't quite apply the same way for the RTM version

oh fuck man i didnt know that.
what should i use instead? mac book ?

Bit coin is worthless nowadays anyway. Even with the mining if it was active it would be using fuck all resources on your pc that you wouldn't even notice unless your pc is outdated with very little ram. No reason not to use utorrent unless your a linux fag that is paranoid about everything and shit posts abouts windows and nsa.
>>53626560
Are you retarded? Bitcoin mining will use all of your spare resources. All of your spare CPU and GPU cycles will be used to mine.
>>53626425
>Using Windows 10
>Complaining about the botnet
I'm not saying W7 its free of sin, but everyone who isn't a cuck knows is the last decent MS OS.
To make an analogy, you can get virus either way, but at least I download verified torrents and I don't click on porn ads, that reduces the chances.
>>53626575
There was an article done on the bitmining that was on utorrent it showed the usage it was using and it was nothing compared to the normal way of bitcoin mining
>>53626602
This is why I use Linux. The only time I boot into Windows is literally for a small handful of games. Every other practical computing need, Linux does a fine job, even stuff that makes me money.
>>53624463
Deluge masterrace.
>>53626635
Which is why it's totally okay to have a program install extra software without your consent! uTorrent masterrace, guys!
Faggot.
Lol, fuck this world and these OS's with all their botnets. This planet is fucked up.
>>53626748
Yeah I literally searched utorrent there and news articles come up there's a new bitcoin miner installed. The last one was removed but I didn't expect to see a new one installed anytime soon.......my bad
>>53624463
That's not how peer-to-peer works. What do you think is that "Upload speed"? You're actually uploading what you've downloaded for others to download (and in return they upload what they've downloaded for you to download)
This tbqh
>>53627503
YES! Why the fuck do people use other things? I literally don't understand.
