MODERATORS
It's lightweight, open source, and does exactly what it's supposed to.
I kind of legacyed my way into it. It was the first thing I grabbed after uTorrent went to hell decades ago.
What is the advantage of qbit over it?
I2p torrenting is supported by QBitTorrent not transmission. Transmission is simple, clean, lightweight and does the thing. QB is a million knobs dials and levers and comparatively heavier though not offensively so.
Qbittorrent feels a lot closer to what uTorrent used to be, while Transmission has more of a Mac-style simplicity to it.
My main point of concern is most of my indexes often ban versions of transmission but I never see that for qbit.
