Recommendations for torrenting with linux?
-
Wow, that's crazy. Could really get creative with your config using that!
-
Surfshark
Please don't use Surfshark
-
Mullvad all the way
-
I use i2p for torrents exclusively. It's slow but totally private so I can seed without needing to mess about with a VPN.
There is a slightly smaller community but the people on there have similar tastes to me: linux textbooks, GOG games, jazz albums, etc.
-
qbittorrent.
-
KTorrent (KDE) or Transmission (GNOME).
GNOME is the default on Ubuntu, Fedora and lots more. KDE is default on OpenSUSE, KDE Neon and Kubuntu.
-
This; Linuxserver Qbittorrent docker with gluetun to make sure all traffic goes through your VPN.
-
I don't use docker, so I just set the interface to the tun0 or whatever in the qbittorrent config.
-
rtorrent for me.
-
Nothing over here like that. Seems quite consistent on memory usage.

Weird thing to downvote, this is how I tested Linux since if I broke something or wanted to try a different distro I just deleted the VM and tried another. It's way more annoying to distrohop once you've installed a system to your machine that also has all your files and configs set up.
