I'm fucking tired of this ungodly, broken, buggy piece of shit.

Why can't we have nice things? There is literally not other torrent client that is free and open source + has an automatic RSS downloader AND is not written in some meme language like python
>>54925002
Use 2.2.1, faggot.
>>54925027
>open source
>>54925002
>set global max connections to 250

Sounds like you should report that t the devs.
Transmission you negro
>>54925057
>automatic RSS downloader
Are there any BitTorrent clients worth using outside of the following?
Deluge, cuz cross-platform, good features and usability. Can also be daemonized and ran on seedboxes, and even has a CLI UI.
Transmission, cuz shiny and usable. Has WebUI and daemon mode just like Deluge. Is also highly scriptable.
rtorrent, cuz command-line.
tixati, cuz it is shiny and a good Windows client.
Nothing else seems to be worth using.

>>set global max connections to 250

I'll take things that never happened for $500.
Fucking CIA niggers
>>54925002
Works on my machine
:^)
>>54925002
>falling for the free software meme
lol, just use utorrent 2.2.1. There are no exploits for it and it's faster and better than any freetard program like qbtorrent.
>>54925077
>Deluge
python
RSS only through
>Transmission
no RSS(only available through some workarounds for linux only)
>rtorrent
doesn't work properly with NTFS
>Tixati
not open source
>>54925090
except it literally did, it wasn't the first time either
>check connections
>1500 connections
>close QBitorrent
>200 connections after a minute
>open QBittorrent

Use deluge OP, it just werks and is FOSS.
>>54925140
RSS only through plugins*
>>54925141
>using open source software
>>54925161
I almost fell for it.
>>54925140
Thanks anon.
>RSS only through
Did you mean through a plugin, such <http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Plugins/YaRSS2>?
>Transmission, no RSS
Good point.
>rtorrent and NTFS
Good point as well.
>tixati
Forgot it was closed-source. I still think it's a good client though. Though it'll probably go the way of Poo in the Lootorrent at some point.
Do you know of any other good clients that have strong points that other clients may be missing, such as RSS?
>>54925002
I agree its not very good but it does get the job done. And its not likr you spend alot of time starring at it anyway.
>>54925208
yes, I meant through the addon
Honestly, I haven't tried Deluge because the fact it's written in python always put me off so I didn't bother.
I've used QBittorrent for at least a year now, even recommended it to people but this shit is getting out of hand.
I was even ready to blame my router for the connection spam, but then I get these errored torrents all of a sudden.
I wish I knew if there was something else, none of the lite clients have support for RSS or don't have the already mentioned problems.
I guess I'll try Deluge now and maybe Tixati later, don't see another solution.
>>54925252
that is not the point, my router filters connections at 4096 active connections, so when it got maxed out I couldn't even connect to the DNS server.
Also errored downloads like mentioned in the OP aren't really desired
Why doesn't anyone ever mention Halite in these threads? It's the first suggestion on the installgentoo wiki
>>54925293
probably lacks some advanced features a lot of people want
>>54925293
I tried to use Halite for a few weeks, but it had some serious usability problems that I now cannot remember.
I think it may have been related to file priority. Where if you downloaded a huge-ass torrent and only needed a small subset of the files, you had to go and set the priority one at a time. You couldn't do it in bulk.
>>54925002
use newest version of utorrent and disable the ads. everything else is just a freetard meme that is bug ridden
Get a better computer, Qbittorrent works fine for me.
2.0.4 till the day I die.
>>54926278
>get a better computer
it's like I'm reading those shitty tech forums filled with children that think they know anything about computers
>>54926408
Works for me.
Tixati just works and looks /g/ af, idgaf if they track me occasionally pirating shows or gaymz.

You fell for the b8 m8.
I'm tired of winfags saying qb is a broken piece of shit. It's broken because it's running in a shitty OS running a shitty, broken, fucked up "sharing" method that was created for perfectly level networks, not stealing the latest shit movie over the internet.
>>54926583
okay anon
>>54926663
Some of the bugs seem really silly.
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/5047
>>54926756
that one is true though, if unselect files, as in you don't want to download them at all, it still downloads them, sometimes partially, sometimes completely and puts them in a .unwanted folder.
>>54926775
Sounds like QBitTorrent subscribes to the principle of most surprise.
>>54926775
if you unselect some files*, is what I meant
>>54925291
Why do you care in what language is written? Do you want to contribute on the programs you are using?
isn't qbitorrent completely broken on windows 10? like after a certain amount of torrents added, it makes your computer glitch up for split seconds
>>54926794
I'm just autistic when it comes to that
>>54926775
Isn't it because a block contains data from both a wanted and unwanted file and if it didn't store the unwanted part of the block it couldn't rehash after you delete and re-add the torrent?
Absolutely reasonable though there should be an option probably.
>>54926826
yea, I think something like that was the explanation last time I looked for the answer.
It's kinda fucked, they don't make the client delete the .unwanted folder afterwards either.
Then again, who knows if it might fuck up and delete something else other than what it's supposed to
>>54925122
this desu senpai
>>54925077
Dumb question, what exactly is daemon mode?
>>54925002
qbloat-16MB
utorrent 221-350KB
utorrent 3.47-2.4MB
>>54925002
FUD CONFIRMED
>>54925027
malware
>>54927335
Not a dumb question, anon.
Running a program as a daemon means you run it in the background, and it has no visibile user-interface.
This is perfect for servers, which have no UIs. You can keep the daemon (in this case, deluged or transmission) in the background, and then connect to it either through a web browser, a command-line interface, or through a desktop GUI that knows how to connect to the daemon.
I used to run a FreeBSD seedbox and ran Deluge as a daemon on there. I managed it from my machine by connecting the Deluge GUI to the remote daemon session, from which I added or removed torrents and whatnot.
