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.
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.
qbit on pc, flud on android
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
qBittorrent here.
+1 for qBittorrent. I used to be a Deluge fan, but qBittorrent seems more performant and feature-packed.
BiglyBT for manual dls on desktop, qBittorrent with the arrs
Still qbittorrent. Docker container with web UI makes it trivial.
With Vuetorrent for a nice mobile ui
Did you try qBitController?
I was not aware of that. Thanks for sharing. I’ll probably stick to my current setup for now as its one app less on the phone and I access the rest of my services through the browser anyway .
