Strange capitalization and punctuation.
Meme stamp of approval!

Yeah check out uTorrent ads instead! 🙄
It used to be a good downloader. Now it sucks.
I honestly thought it was criticizing utorrent
You’re in luck: qBittorrent still works great. No ads.
Transmission just works, no bullshit
Don’t use uTorrent. Use transmission, qbittorent, or deluge.
Or skip torrents entirely and use soulseek. Or Usenet.
But not utorrent.
Usenet+soulseek is the way to go imo. I only use torrents as a backup these days.
Be aware that soulseek is crazy insecure. Plaintext passwords, unencrypted plaintext traffic. Any attacker can see who you are, what you do and can even change what you send
Yea I feel like it should be used behind a VPN. With unique credentials (as should be there norm on any platform). And maybe, from what you’re telling me, on a spare PC if possible.
Seriously. You quit using some streaming service because they gave you ads, so you use a bittorrent client that has ads?
Plenty of good ones out there that don’t. Open source qbittorrent being my personal favorite.
Netflix subscribers getting blasted with GTA6 “promotional material”.

\facepalm
Who still uses uTorrent in 2026? I thought everyone jumped to other clients about ten years ago.
Yeah, didn’t it use your CPU toine bitcoins?
I use qbittorrent, probably 10-15 years now, but moving mostly to NZB.
Yeah I thought it was well known since like 2016 that utorrent mined crypto
I’m boggled by the idea of a person who is savvy enough to know about lemmy but still uses a dogshit, customer-hating client like uTorrent. Use Qbittorrent, it’s been the best for a solid 15 years. When you were annoyed by the ads, you should have immediately gone looking for a different client. The learning curve between torrent clients is a flat line.
