I guess I'm old, but it used to be common to - gasp! - install multiple applications. Now, the browser is basically everything.
- pabs3 5y agoTo be clear, I'm old too, vastly prefer applications rather than web browsers.
- smt88 5y agoThere's no reason to be condescending. Adding download friction for $0 of benefit for a developer makes no sense. I have had a BitTorrent client installed for more than 20 years, and I use it perhaps once a year these days (and only to download old video games that I can't get anywhere else).
- saboot 5y agoIt's been so long since I used a torrent that I don't know what program I'd use. I last used mutorrent but read they were putting crypto mining code in their client.
- NackerHughes 5y agoqBittorrent is cross-platform, open-source and malware-free. µTorrent has been not recommended for a while.
- pabs3 5y agortorrent or transmission are good CLI and GUI open source clients.
