Hi, ive been pirating stuff for a bit and I currently use Picotorrent, but I wanted to know what everyone else uses to see if there is a better option.

qBittorrent on my Windows boxes, Transmission on my MacBook. Gotta figure out how I’m gonna get my server set up though once I migrate it to openmediavault instead of Windows Server

I use rtorrent + Flood. Nice setup if you’re using a seedbox or otherwise running your torrents on a server.

I’ve tried to set that docker up so many times and can never get it to work. Looks amazing, I’m jealous.

Well if you’re willing to give it another shot, this is the docker-compose I use with it. I also have ruTorrent running because that’s what I was using before I heard about flood and just never bothered to strip it from the setup.

I think the only other thing to mention is you’ll need to register for a maxmind API key and drop that into the environment variable field.

I use transmission. M1 compatible, open source and free

Does using ports on transmission do anything?

qBittorrent for over a decade now.

Same here. I occasionally try other clients, but qB is the one I always end up going back to, mostly because it automagically blocks hosts that send garbage.

Same, qbittorrent on windows, rtorrent on seedbox.

The best client ever

Yep. The day µTorrent did their adware/crypto/whatever the fuck it was shit happened more than once, I immediately grabbed qBittorrent and never wanted to look back. Only once did I have a problem with it and that was an issue between it and Sonarr which I resolved by just downgrading qBittorrent for awhile lol

I had a problem with qbittorrent years ago with a DNS leak but once I solved that no issues. I can’t remember what the problem was but I am almost certain it was user config related and not program related.

Flud is great! One of my most missed apps since moving to iOS.

Flud isn’t opensource like some of other options out there. Also they push ads

qBittorret I’ve been using that for what feels like 10 years.

Transmission with OpenVPN, using the haugene/transmission-openvpn Docker image.

I mostly torrent via API using Sonarr and Radarr.
