edit: I am using Debian Stable, so though I have Transmission the transmission I have is the older one released in 2020. So, unfortunately, I can’t use the latest greatest thing (unless I use flatpaks), I have however chosen to use qb and I like it as well! Thank you all

Two uses I think I would have from this app

  1. I can see the quality of the file as I am downloading it and I can remove it if I don’t like it.
  2. I can obviously watch the movie or show I want to watch without waiting for it to be downloaded.

I am using Transmission now and I love it, but yeah, this would be a good addition.

PS: I do realize this would most likely work only for torrents with good number of seeders.

    I have a pragmatic approach. I prefer to always use the app/program that works best for me and choose FOSS everything else being equal.

      everything else being equal is almost never the case. I like the fact that FOSS code is openly available, gives me a sense of peace of mind like none other. But yeah, I get your point
