My last foray into Torrenting was when TWC was taken over by Spectrum and I was using uTorrent like crazy. We had Spectrum ONE week and I got a DMCA letter. This is the type of thing I’m trying to avoid.

Although I’ve found a lot of information on Qbittorrent, I would like to know from some long-time users what are the minimum things I must set within the client to be safe, discrete but also have a good Download/Upload experience. I am using ExpressVPN.

Thanks so much!

    I’ve been using glueten + BT in a docker-compose stack for a year and would highly recommend it for being fast, highly customizable, and 0 risk.

        I just got a Pi set up with OMV, docker, and portaier… but have not had any success setting up docket stuff. I’m very new to Linux overall; are there any guides for newbies on stuff like Gluetun+torrenting?

      My guy, I did the exact same thing.

      I also wrote a custom init script to read the forwarded port from gluetun and automatically change the settings in qbittorrent so I no longer get random failures.
