I’m spinning up a new seedbox and wanted to know what is everyone using nowadays? I was using deluge via the thick client and rutorrent previously. Are they still king? edit: I should have also mentioned that I plan on running this server headless so I will need to be able to access it via a thin client or a web browser
Qbittorrent via a container and web UI on my NAS, lets me use it as a backend for *arrs as well as anything else, just have tag based directories for it so Software goes into one folder and TV movies etc in their respective folders.
I personally like the setup a lot since I can always be a seeder even well after my ratio is hit.
slskd hooked up to this as well to share everything music wise, gives me a nice way to reconcile stuff Lidarr can’t find and shares it all back for anyone to browse so hopefully helps someone downloadv something they’re searching for a FLAC of
nzb360 on Android for management as needed, it hooks into Qbittorrent easily and gives me a nice place to do some quicker tasks for my overall infra
I use biglybt, i know the ui isn’t great but the features make up for it
I’ve been using Transmission for many years.
iblocklist and transmission name a better team
QBITTORRENT
+1 qbittorrent
At least there’s one thing these Lemmy people agree with me on.
Deluge
Good ol’ rtorrent never dissapoints. For when I want something with a webui, I have a qflood container that I extracted from its old *arr setup to more generalistic usage.
I’m currently using Transmission again
qbittorrent on PC and libretorrent on Android.
Glad to see I’m not the only one who torrents on mobile
I usually do smaller things when on mobile, both due to Storage and Data Usage considerations. For bigger stuff I mainly use my PC and qbittorrent.
qbit on pc, flud on android
Random semi-related thought. I’m going through the comparison of BitTorrent clients page on Wikipedia and it’s amazing how many clients end up as Adware.
qBittorent for Windows and LibreTorrent for Android.
I use almost the same setup, except I don’t use Windows on Desktop.
Qbittorrent, Transmission and Ktorrent the Last two When some updates breaks Qbittorrent
BiglyBT for manual dls on desktop, qBittorrent with the arrs
qBittorrent here.
+1 for qBittorrent. I used to be a Deluge fan, but qBittorrent seems more performant and feature-packed.
I keep recommending Tribler and I don’t know why it’s not more popular. Anything wrong with it?
I appreciate the ability for the tor-like layered routing with tribler. Getting the headless UI set up is annoying, though.
The most recent release is headless and only has a web front end.
