I want to use qbittorrent, but my Mac won’t let me install it - says it’s too old for the operating system and/or that it can’t be verified.
I’ve just installed bigly bt, and I have three questions: 1) is it possible to set the seeding ratio 2) do we really need to confirm the deletion of every torrent via the pop up? (I have RSI, and the less popups or clicking the better) and 3) why does searching for a torrent via the internal search engine result in a captula.?
I really like biglybt, but why is it so… slow to add torrents or shut itself down? It seems as if the app does so many different things simultaneously that it doesn’t do them seamlessly or instantaneously. I mean, why does it need ‘up to twenty seconds’ to close after you’ve downloaded something? Is it bloat? Is there a way to streamline its running?
Transmission used to be my preferred app hands down but recent updates have negatively impacted its performance on my end. If all it needs to do is download torrents, why does it now sometimes seem incapable of connecting to a given (popular) swarm ?
Particularly unfortunate is that once it does connect, the download speed has now become arbitrary: it keeps alternating between ‘incredibly fast’ and ‘surprisingly slow’ and takes three or four times as long to complete. I’ve become so exasperated with it that I’ve been forced to move on (deluge instantly connects and consistently downloads at five times the speed).
