Hi, ive been pirating stuff for a bit and I currently use Picotorrent, but I wanted to know what everyone else uses to see if there is a better option.

        Yep. The day µTorrent did their adware/crypto/whatever the fuck it was shit happened more than once, I immediately grabbed qBittorrent and never wanted to look back. Only once did I have a problem with it and that was an issue between it and Sonarr which I resolved by just downgrading qBittorrent for awhile lol

          I had a problem with qbittorrent years ago with a DNS leak but once I solved that no issues. I can’t remember what the problem was but I am almost certain it was user config related and not program related.

      Same here. I occasionally try other clients, but qB is the one I always end up going back to, mostly because it automagically blocks hosts that send garbage.
