Switched from uTorrent to QBitTorrent

So a bunch of people in this subreddit told me that uTorrent was trash and to switch to QBitTorrent.

I didn’t think much of it. How could one be so much better than the other? They’re both just torrent downloaders.

Holy shit was I wrong. I don’t even really understand what is happening, but downloading torrents on QBitTorrent is so, so, so much faster and I don’t even understand how.

A movie downloads in basically seconds compared to 10 or 20 minutes on uTorrent.

Why is this? What is this magic? What makes QBitTorrent so much faster?

Melatonin,

I’m assuming you mean you were using one of the older, “safe” versions of uTorrent. But yeah, the technology has updated. It’s better.

angelsomething,

I have had the same experience switching from deluge to qbittorrrent. It’s like, another world.

Utorrent kind of went really downhill and sold itself. Nobody should ever use utorrent anymore

Tldr; bittorrent bought out utorrent and started putting ads in the client
