I’m migrating because Transmission is horrible for a large amount of torrents (multiple of hundreds) due to the complete lack of concurrency capability. But I’ll miss Transmission. This configuration has spanned many different operating systems and was migrated from transmission-gtk to transmission-daemon.

Translation of all the numbers:

    I gotta get my ship sea worthy again.

    Thiiiiink it goes something like this:

    1. Catch a VPN - heard good about Mulvad but no port forwarding? Any other recs?
    2. Set that up - maybe need more info here 😅
    3. Use torrent client/website?? - what are the cool kids doing these days, qbittorrent?

    Feel free to shoot DMs too 🤙 I just love sailing advice.

      Qbittorrent, plex or jellyfin and if you’re into it, the arr suite for automation, all configured in a single docker compose file. It’s beautiful. But I don’t know if it’s as nice under Windows (if that’s what you’re using). For Linux it’s definitely super nice

        If you’re dockerizing it, you’re dockerizing it under Linux. Nobody dockerizes anything under Windows, that’s the definition of insanity. And the tool itself works basically the same whether you’re using Windows or Linux.

      qbittorrent-nox is my go-to. No need for a desktop UI, just give me the web-ui. That’s all I use anyway, and I can manage it from my phone wherever I am.

      I can answer 1 and 3 easily. AirVPN is decent and Qbit seems to be the consensus.
