I have a router I’m running nord vpn but I use bitTorrent on windows and I’m looking to switch. Does anyone have a flavor of Linux and program they use?

Any advice would be helpful I’m getting nowhere on forums.

    Generally most people get recommended to start their Linux journey with Mint as it is noob friendly (while still having full functionality) other options to consider would be popOS Ubuntu & Fedora.

    qBittorrent is the most recommended I’ve seen, although I use transmission.

      Why do you use transmission? Genuinely curious. The times I tried to use it, it seemed so basic and lacking functionality

        For me, I like that it isn’t overcomplicated and just works. It being basic is a big pro to me.

        It works ? I mean what necessary functionality is it missing ? Magnet link goes in, files come out, happy face.
