Torrent client rankings

Why would I want those extra features in my torrent client? My transmission runs in a container and does its job

I like Transmission, it’s minimal and downloads torrents.

May I also mention aria2? I don’t think it counts as a torrent client but it supports torrenting.

I have seen this same image circulated for years. We need a new one because transmission in D tier is unacceptable.

I feel like Transmission is getting unnecessary hate from this chart. It works very good, is stable, efficient…

I guess Porla isn’t in any of those tiers because it’s in completely different league. It’s still in early development, just give it some time.

Toxicity aside some of the generals on there are very informative

Whoever designed that seems like they have something against transmission lol.

For me personally: it gets the job done, is allowed by most private trackers, fast and responsive, has a functional webui, and a very vast selection of third party apps (in addition to the cross platform first-party offering)

It’s simplicity is kind of its selling point. Only real criticism I have is that it’s unfortunate some of the supported features aren’t accessible in the first party apps, and especially from the lightweight web interface

BiglyBT having a chat feature boggles me, why would anyone want that in their torrent client?

To get in those private trackers

ruTorrent makes rtorrent a lot more usable if you dont like the CLI.
