Yeah, seems weird that simple “it downloads torrents” client gets a D. It gets the job done, is easy to figure out, and doesnt fuck about with features I would never touch. Maybe thats not enough for a power user but for me its exactly what I want.
(but then why is Tixati in B, seems to have mostly downsides?)
I guess I just don’t really know what feature-rich means in this context but being proprietary, not fully cross platform, and banned on most private trackers seems like huge downsides for power users compared to customization, built in search, and integrated chat.
I get this chart probably not made for people like me in mind though.
To be able to set download location, not download into folders, change location based on category, stop seeding after ratio or time, watch a folder for torrent files, delete said files after importing them, minimize to tray.
Not sure what transmission can and cannot do, but those are some examples of features in this context. Others may have a different opinion.
They say “barely lacks any features” which I think they mean it’s full featured. I feel like Transmission and rTorrent are good clients for their niche though.

It’s gone the job done for me, for over 16 years now. It was the only real option for Mac computers back in University. I still use it to this day.
