Are y'all actually torrenting Linux ISOs. Cus I recommend. Its way faster and fun to have a collection of like 30 distros and try and new branch of the larger Linux tree. I just assume its a joke but I only started torrenting Linux ISO because of seeing it replied so much lol.

I always torrent Linux ISOs. Built in checksumming, I’m lazy

Insecure checksumming though (sha-1)

Verify the SHA-256 or SHA-512 hash after downloading. Most Linux distros publish such hashes.
