qBittorrent for over a decade now.
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
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.
Since I discovered qbittorent, it has been the only thing I use for torrents
qBittorrent for me.
If PicoTorrent meets your needs then you're fine, it's a great torrent client.
I tend to use qBittorrent, Deluge, rTorrent/ruTorrent.
Below is the list of desktop/server torrent clients people have mentioned over on the old subreddit.
- BiglyBT
- BitTorrent Classic / uTorrent Classic (current versions are essentially the same client nowadays)
- or uTorrent 2.2.1 (try here)
- BitTorrent Web / uTorrent Web
- Deluge
- Exatorrent
- FrostWire
- JSTorrent
- KTorrent
- PicoTorrent
- Porla
- qBittorrent
- rTorrent
- Tixati
- Transmission
- Tribler
- Vuze
- WebTorrent Desktop
I'll just add that it's best to avoid current versions of BitTorrent/uTorrent/Vuze nowadays. (Vuze users should migrate to BiglyBT)
Qbittorrent. Before that, uTorrent. Prefer QBT interface. Tried i2p, but too tech-ignorant to make it work.
i2p is not a torrent client - but have no fear, you’re not missing much. i2p torrenting is slowwww (think gigs per day) and generally doesn’t have much.
I've been using Qbittorrent for as long as I can remember. It's been very reliable and I don't see a reason to change.
qBittorret I've been using that for what feels like 10 years.
qbittorrent on windows and Flud on my phone.
qbittorrent with docker container.
qBittorrent through the webui mostly. I have it installed on my NAS along with Jellyfin, Radarr, Sonarr, etc.
Deluged on my 24/7 running box and the gtk client to connect to it from my main PC.
qBittorrent, for its search engine. It's fantastic. If it didn't have it though I'd use Transmission.
deluge on linux
libretorrent on android
Deluge in a docker container. I run a media server and use the *arr apps to control things and deluge for the torrent app. I have it all behind a VPN. If the VPN goes down the entire network fails and is unable to connect any other way…. I do not trust a Killswitch and never would.
I've been using Transmission on a headless Debian box running the web UI. Has worked well for me for over a decade.
qbittorrent. Tried i2p, but too tech-ignorant to make it work.
Déluge on my desktop, qbittorrent on my laptop and libretorrent on my android
Deluge for my seedbox
Transmission with OpenVPN, using the haugene/transmission-openvpn Docker image.
I mostly torrent via API using Sonarr and Radarr.
qBitorrent with Vuetorrent webui
qbittorrent-qt5, the default qt6 toolkit version looks a bit out of place with my Plasma theme.
qBittorrent but sometimes will use Seedr.cc
Transmission since you can select files inside a torrent and prioritize them, or choose to not download some files.
Are there any torrent clients that don't have that? qbittorrent has it, and even the ancient utorrent had it.
qBittorent in a docker. Rock solid.
Not the first person I see using it on docker. Why, tho? Any reason for it?
I use rtorrent + Flood. Nice setup if you're using a seedbox or otherwise running your torrents on a server.
Tixati for PC, Transmission for Mac is how I’ve had it for a while. No complaints!
Radarr for movies, sonarr for shows, lidarr for music, nzbget as the downloader using prowlarr to manage my indexers
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 was using Transmission on macOS but since I pay for Real Debrid to use it with Stremio, all my torrenting goes through there now.
KTorrent on KDE desktop on Linux. Transmission on other operating systems.
I use mldonkey, because it have ed2k/kad network too and it is enough for me. Just one program, one daemon.
