Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

How come tixati is banned, lol. I use qBittorrent.

I have some custom scripts which kinda do what the *arr apps do.

I download torrent files into a folder. My script picks it up, identifies whether it is movie, TV, music, Games, ebooks, or something else. Based on this it selects the right folder. Then calls Transmission API and adds the torrent with the relevant path.

In case of movies and TV shows, it then calls the transmission APIs to rename the files properly. This way I can have my folders well organised and continue seeding without the need of creating duplicates.

This setup works quite well. The only fear I have is the transmission remote GUI for Windows hasn't been updated in 4 years. It works quite well, but it's only a matter of time before it stops working.

Should I consider another client?

there is Trimbler

So, no one talks about Ktorrent? It just works perfectly for me. Kudos to the developers!

I’m still on utorrent2, can get it oldversion.com or something like that. It’s too well made, never found a reason to switch.

You are bullying my client of choice here, Transmission.. :P

I don't think qbittorrent could choose what files to download from inside a torrent, and which to ignore, or which to prioritize?

Meh. uTorrent version 2.1.8 works fine, and has no adware.

I've tried most of these clients, but I keep going back to the old uTorrent 2.2.1 (the newer versions are indisputably awful). I find that it still has the best UX to date. On nix machines I use qB.

Edit: Warning: newer versions of uTorrent are malware. I recommend people pick a different client, as uTorrent actively tries to trick people into downloading the newer versions.
