Site is down, but I noticed recently that the bit torrent client is looking more and more like 90s malware every time I download it. It has been streaming commercials for a while now. Ive decided to look for an alternative client next time I need to install one
- jerkstate 9y agoqbittorrent is pretty good
- tonmoy 9y agoTransmission is pretty good. Lightweight and looks same on Linux/Windows

- RankingMember 9y agoI suspect you're referring to μTorrent, which has been descending into awful spam-infested garbage for a long time now. As another user suggested, give qbittorrent a go.

- pwg 9y agortorrent https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent Plain text, runs in a terminal (which means screen or tmux allows for remote, headless, operation). No ads, just torrenting.

- akvadrako 9y agoThat's because it does everything you need. It hasn't had much in the way of updates for years.
- Kpourdeilami 9y agoIf you're using uTorrent to stream movies, I suggest using [Soda Player](https://www.sodaplayer.com/ https://www.sodaplayer.com/). It has no ads and lets you stream the movie instead of waiting for it to finish downloading
