I’m a long-time Transmission user but I just learned that VPN killswitches are a thing (how did it take me so long!?). I would like to try another client which has this feature in case I forget to launch my VPN client before opening Transmission. Does anybody have any recommendations? Deluge? QBittorrent? Or any others?

Adding to the qbittorrent recommendations: qb has Socks5 support and and supports binding traffic to a specific interface. It doesn’t get much better than this.

I mean… That essentially does the same thing but it’s much more complicated than just clicking a button in the qb GUI…

True, but enforcing the restriction at the systemd level will be safer. Frankly I like Transmission.

Fair enough.
