Show HN: PikaTorrent, a modern, multi-platform, open source BitTorrent app

Why bake libtransmission into the app instead of just using the transmission daemon's RPC?
What you've done actually makes it harder to use, because in order to configure any of transmission's settings (ports, connection/torrent connection limits, bandwith limits, etc) the user needs to dig around to find the transmission config folder and then manually edit JSON with a text editor - because your client doesn't expose any of transmissions numerous settings [1] to the user except for choosing the download folder.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to use this instead of Flood [2] or even old Transmission Web Control [3]

If you haven't seen the https://flood.js.org project before. It has subjectively a nicer ui and works with qbittorent.

One note: I lean heavily on an API to manage it so I'd love to continue using flood, I tested qbittorrent with it briefly and it didn't go well.

If it's just the web ui you're worried about perhaps look into installing Flood & see if it helps? It's going to be a better web ui overall. (I've never needed to use it personally but it's been recommended in the pat)

Impressive. But I dont get why they would rebuild the web client when there are existing options like: https://github.com/jesec/flood

Just a reminder that if you torrent with a VPN, it is TRIVIAL to set up a killswitch so torrent traffic can ONLY ever go over the VPN.
