Transmission VS transgui

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]

Grab this file. Install Transmission on Mac or Deluge on Win. Optional: run a VPN if you're in the US(mostly) and worried about your ISP sending you a cease-and-desist notice. Open the file using the app you installed. Wait. It should start within a minute or two and download progress will be seen. Speed depends on how many people are sharing it. Any issues, let me know.

Why "NO TORRENT"? Just get TransmissionBT and torrent whatever you want

Its intresting you mention that, before reading your reply I went and created a post in the Q n A section, asking for help about this very thing and I linked to the same GitHub issue you linked to here. I have yet to get a reply lol.here

transmission can run as a headless server with a web gui

Get a VPN like Windscribe(set windscribe firewall to on instead of auto), forward your port via their website. Use a good torrent client like https://transmissionbt.com/ set that port in the options, and add a blocklist https://github.com/Naunter/BT\_BlockLists/raw/master/bt\_blocklists.gz

For example, down that page there's a Transmission remote GUI screenshot (I use it as Transmission here is a daemon on my headless XigmaNAS server).

What would be wrong with it or anything similar? Every information is just there, no need to swipe left and right to read information that has been either hidden elsewhere or, worse, taken away.

Actually, not such a bad question. There's at least Synapse[1]. It even has a third-part broker to accept transmission GUIs by Drew Dewalt[2]. Why didn't they just reuse Transmission protocol from the get-go, to leverage the great Transmission-Remote-GUI[3] for example, is beyond me.

Unfortunately, there's just not enough interest in the project and no adoptance.

Transmission, at least previously, never have been too resource-friendly, so a lean and mean Rust alternative would be great.

For something a bit easier I'd look into Transmission or Deluge. The big difference is qbittorrent ran headless only has a web interface, whereas deluge and transmission both have remote dekstop clients as well mobile-friendly web interfaces and apps available

If someone asks me to install a Torrent client on a single machine, my favorite would be QBittorrent, however at home I use XigmaNAS' Transmission client extensively, and operate it from other machines in the LAN using the Transgui interface (also available on Windows and MacOS). This allows me to turn off everything but the NAS, which with all RAID disks spun down and a TDP of 15 Watts makes for some good energy savings.

Transmission Remote GUI

This explains why the only other Lazarus project I know (transgui) is very similar, a GUI to another program.
