There are still private trackers around disallowing transmission (heck - every client but uTorrent), so this might be a valid reason to go with a future utorrent for Linux release.
OTOH, these same trackers are insisting on utorrent for windows anyways and are also disallowing utorrent for the Mac, so my point might be moot
- loup-vaillant 16y agoThat's odd. Why would a tracker ever want to disallow any torrent client? Are they silly, or paid by BitTorrent Inc?
- frou_dh 16y agoBecause the specific client might put unnecessary load on the tracker, or might falsify upload/download ratio to get site karma. That or the admins like making arbitrary decisions.
- masklinn 16y agoApparently, Transmission used to have issues (may still have them, don't know) and misbehave, leading to its banning from several trackers.
