Transmission is just giving me more and more problems. Anyone have any recommendations?

      I’ve been using it since Tomato died. Transmission chokes on torrents with lots of trackers that fail to connect. If you go in and remove them, its performance and responsive improves greatly.

      Outside of those small things, it’s solid and a universal app.

        Huh.

        I regularly manually add this list of trackers to torrents, I’d say most of my torrents have 120+ trackers in their list. Never noticed any issues.

        The only issue I ever noticed is that sometimes the layout of the filter bar breaks, but you can fix it by just disabling/renabling the filters, so just a cosmetic issue that can be fixed with a double click.
