qBittorrent VS flood

Not really. qBittorent is built on Qt (thus the prefix), and has a hand-rolled webui in pure html + css + js (with a couple of helper libraries, but no heavy frameworks):

Use this. Just google how to on ytube.

Now if curious about installing errors and other installer related issues, then here's a small collection: https://www.reddit.com/r/qBittorrent/s/cwCUg9JHLj https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/discussions/17581 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/17605 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/18340 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/19980 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/18636 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/19226 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/19991 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/19978 https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/19977

I’ve used qbittorrent for the last few years. Had no problems with it

Torrenting clients - qBittorrent still supports Win7 if you select the qt5 variant. For people that do not know what qBittorrent is - it is uTorrent, just without bloatware, ads, malware and such. It's open-source. UPDATE: it dropped Win7 support in October. ;_; (quick, somebody make a fork! https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/ ) - here's the last downloadable Win7 version - https://www.fosshub.com/qBittorrent-old.html?dwl=qbittorrent_4.5.5_lt20_qt5_x64_setup.exe (but hey, I'm still downloading torrents fine in under WinXP 32-bit via the ancient uTorrent 2.2.1, so this version of qBittorrent might last for 10+ years for Win7...)

.........What download manager are you using there? Whatever it is, stop and uninstall it like yesterday. Get this https://www.qbittorrent.org/ and try again.

qBittorrent announces Tailscale IPs that are practically never connectable. I believe it's a bug so I reported it to qBit.

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]

Only one that I'm aware of is Flood: https://github.com/jesec/flood

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

You can install alternate web UIs very easy. I’m a big fan of Flood, which is mobile friendly: https://flood.js.org/

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.

You mean a torrent client? I’m using rTorrent with Flood (the new jesec fork that’s actually active) and it works brilliantly on mobile

https://flood.js.org/ ?

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)

qbitorrent-nox with flood-ui

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