what is /g/'s preferred torrent client?
uTorrent 2.2.1
sunxdcc.com
Transmission
>>53862115
I started using Transmission on my server just because it's the Linux client that I had heard of the most when I set up the server. It works fine, and now that I know how to configure it, I'll probably keep using it until I have a problem with it.
Before that on Windows, I used uTorrent until I grabbed an official installer that came packaged with malware-- I will never use uTorrent again. Then, I used qBittorrent, and I don't know what it's like now, but when I used it the memes were true, and then some; I had stalled torrents, shitty upload speeds, and it would completely lock up sometimes for no apparent reason. Then I used Transmission-Qt because I saw a link to it posted here. It worked great and had the features I wanted. Now there's an official version coming. Good stuff.
>>53862149
This, past 2 point whatever it got too clunky
rtorrent is the only correct answer here
>>53862210
Yep
Transmission. Free and fully featured. What's not to love?
>>53862149
Same. It's a shame utorrent went the route of the jews. The current version is nothing but bloatware.

You piracy fags sure are cute.
Qbittorent.
tixati is great for me.
and i have tried most of them,
>>53862300
I'm subscribed to Spotify and Netflix. The wife is subscribed to Scribd. We still need to download things-- mostly TV shows-- because I refuse to pay for cable. I'm willing to pay reasonable prices for the content that I want, but I'm not going to go out of my way to give my money away when I can just go on the internet and get the stuff. Content providers are aware that consumers can do this... it's on them to create the infrastructure necessary for consumers to pay for the content. It's not our fault that the providers need to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century.
On the upside, Adult Swim offers streaming service now. Although I'm not interested in their content and I think their pricing is insane, but at least it's there.
>>53862300
But I am
I have amazon prime, I can watch all the shows I watch on prime instead of torrenting. I used to get movies by post but now my bluray stopped working.
Also prime/netflix are simply retarded because of drm
>>53862149
Same here
Also Flud on Android
Transmission
Deluge + thin client
>>53862347
Literally this
Tixati ftw

>>53862448
this, it works there isn't any real reason to get anything else if you have it pre-installed on mint
Deluge is good
Was utorrent fag before. Annoyed by bloat, ads and cancer, tried /g/'s recommended qbittorrent. Have been happy since then
>>53862238
>fully featured
You mean bloated?
rtorrent
>>53862626
Name a better, FLOSS, torrent client.
real-debrid
>>53862115
Deluge
Best torrent client
>>53862149
Enjoy your outdated exploitable torrent client.
are there people here that unironically dont use qbittorrent?
>>53862115
qBittorrent or deluge. Transmission just works though
Rtorrent
Deluge
>>53862865
I used qbittorrent
My issues were this
Large torrents (30gb+ usually) always -ALWAYS- give a fuck ton of IO errors, and i have to re-check the fucking torrent every 5 minutes till its done
3.3.4 just doesent work.
So went nuts to that and went back to transmission-qt with sonarr (thanks to an anon here that mentioned sonarr.)

I use it but I'll probably switch to deluge
qbittorrent just has so many problems, regardless of which version. I would be fine with this if they were fixing problems with each new rollout but they are doing the opposite

Deluge is the superior choice if you're a lazy bum.
Transmission for Linux (bc pre-installed), Deluge for Windows (bc no fucking ads)
Bittornado.
>lightweight
>no frills (or ads)
>does what you actually need it to do without issue.
I did like utorrent for a bit, but then one day I installed it on a fresh os and it came with preloaded malware like another anon reported. So fuck them. I don't really see any need for all the extra shit, I just want it to download what I want, where I want, and when I tell it to.
>>53862626
There is a lightweight flag you can pass at compile time for transmission.
>>53863325
>He unironically uses winblows
Transmission obviously
>>53862210
Can rtorrent run as a daemon? I don't fancy leaving a tmux session just for my client
>>53862536
>this
Anything but that buggy piece of shit qBittorrent
>>53863037
>qbittorrent just has so many problems, regardless of which version. I would be fine with this if they were fixing problems with each new rollout but they are doing the opposite
So much this. I don't get why /g/ recommends it. I swear it's only because of how similar it looks to uTorrent without being a resource hog like Deluge except Deluge is actually less buggy than qBittorrent.
>>53862969
Same.
Deluge never fails me.
>>53862300
>watching mainstream TV

I use the qbitstalled meme client unironically.
>>53862149
uTorrent sucks massive ass. Transmission is better in every way
I use Transmission because it is stable as fuck and works everywhere.
I'm unironically using vuze
Transmission, never needed anything else.
>>53862185
great now you can download fucking nothing
>>53862115
rtorrent + rutorrent is the true master race, low cpu and memory consumption, wicked fast and stable
qBittorrent obviously
Torch tbqh senpie
Transmission. It just werks. I use it on 15 different private trackers.
>>53866155
In what ways?
What vpn services are /g/ approved?
>>53862115
uTorrent (current version) on Windows.
Transmission on Linux.
>>53863325
>1366x728
>>53862115
Transmission. It's available on Windows, GNU+Linux, and OSX.
>>53862115
utorrent 2.2.1 on windows, transmission on linux
>>53864164
why? tmux or screen is very useful to have anyway and it's not like there's any overhead
>>53862115
qBit
I switched to halite once uTorrent started with ads.
After BitTorrent started using ads I switched to qBittorrent, clean and simple, does the job and I've never had any issues
>this many cucks here
Just use qbittorrent a D ignore the qstalled faggots.
>>53862912
Exactly this, deluged fit my seed box, qbtorrent for my desktop.
>>53862115
tixati
>>53862115
My preference is rtorrent.
>>53868674
>Just use qbittorrent
I don't use buggy clients. I use Transmission.
>>53863638
I love bt, but it needs magnet link support
Deluge
qbittorrent doesn't support multiple tags
>>53862300
I don't watch your scrub ass shows or listen to your scrub ass music
rtorrent / rutorrent.
Does your torrent client even have this feature ?
>>53869561
How do you download without seeding? If I limit my upload while torrenting, even just a little bit. My download stops.
does deluge have a way to view downloaded and uploaded data? id like to see how much ive transferred
>>53866654
Every. Way.
>>53869561
didn't know being cancer was a feature
>>53862115
deluged
>>53869602
I still seed, but only when I download stuff.
The seeding process is automatically terminated if it's public tracker and the download is finished.
>>53869602
>How do you download without seeding?
You can't.
q
>Error : no sources found for torrent
i get this most of the time on public trackers
is it normal? i still get downloads but with most it's like i can try to download dozens of torrent and i have to keep retrying for days upon end and then end up giving up on a few. recently uploaded torrents work better i guess
>>53872754
How many trackers do you have on the torrent? Sometimes there are peers on other random trackers so I'll load up a ton of trackers, hope there's 1 peer somewhere, and let DHT take care of it
>>53872754
>public torrents
>no seeds
Yeah, it's normal.
>>53867645
I also use halite, it's good but I never see /g/ mention it :(
