Whoever designed that seems like they have something against transmission lol.
For me personally: it gets the job done, is allowed by most private trackers, fast and responsive, has a functional webui, and a very vast selection of third party apps (in addition to the cross platform first-party offering)
It's simplicity is kind of its selling point. Only real criticism I have is that it's unfortunate some of the supported features aren't accessible in the first party apps, and especially from the lightweight web interface
I dropped Transmission because I found it had severe performance problems with very large torrents. qBittorrent has been great.
Never had an issue with anything
Neither did I until I tried running torrents > 100GB.
There was some bug in the way it was using Java's non-blocking IO and buffer classes that caused resource starvation with very large torrents.
