So a bunch of people in this subreddit told me that uTorrent was trash and to switch to QBitTorrent.
I didn’t think much of it. How could one be so much better than the other? They’re both just torrent downloaders.
Holy shit was I wrong. I don’t even really understand what is happening, but downloading torrents on QBitTorrent is so, so, so much faster and I don’t even understand how.
A movie downloads in basically seconds compared to 10 or 20 minutes on uTorrent.
Why is this? What is this magic? What makes QBitTorrent so much faster?
UT has been garbage for some time. I reckon the data it uses to send your info back to them and to load ads, bogs down the network, especially on slower networks. The last time I used it, there were also graphical artifacts all over. Qbit on the other hand, is much cleaner and simpler to use, and it doesnt add any unwanted network traffic, which is why it’s probably faster
