How time consuming is loading a torrent up? lol

It takes a lot of time to find the right torrent, look at the samples / screenshots and then set the connection. Earlier, it used to be fun. But right now, I don't have much time.

Transmission. Simply because it came pre-installed on Ubuntu based linux distros, and therefore that was the only torrent program I know of when I started downloading. And then it's also open-source and kinda minimalistic, so it suits my preferences well.
But remember kids, piracy is a crime! (And therefore I have never pirated, and never will Roll Eyes)

Simple small app n every one will tell you is simple. I believe this is only matter of choice n mainly most of utorrent user head from a friend n they start using it.

µTorrent - sheerly for the options it provides plus being able to set-up a proxy without too much hassle. The only annoying thing is the ads although those are quite easily removed.

I don't use torrents simply because I always worry all the downloading will slow my computer down.  I'm aware there are ways to store the downloads of the computer I'm just saying why I always hesitated to do so.  I'll be taking note of where others go for their downloads cause I think I'll try it soon.

It's both closed source and it shows ads in the client. I believe at least one P2P network was compromised by its ad system, but I forget which. Not to mention, if it's closed source AND they're willing to put ads in to make money, what ELSE would they be willing to put in to make money? I use Deluge or qBittorrent.

Ads has never bothered me but the closed source thing is pretty major! Going to give qbit a try.

uTorrent, for obvious reasons. A (very) tiny BitTorrent client.

But I must say it has been a bloatware since a last few releases; tries to install 3rd party tools when you install free version. And pushes you to buy the 'Plus' version every now-and-then.  I mean, REALLY? Who the fcuk wants a PAID version of a torrent client?

Switch to another client then. There are many open-source, non 3rd party installing clients. Transmission for example only ask you to donate once in a while on start up.
