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?

Ditch torrents and go to usenet

Much like in the attached image, OP has requested help with a specific thing and the responder has not provided any helpful information and has simply told OP to do something completely different with no further explanation.

And the person giving the correct answer got downvoted.

Nice. Will use in the future.

Usenet is okay but there’s some stuff I can only find on torrents

I have usenet as my primary with torrent as a backup. I get probably 80-90% hits on usenet for the most part.

Yeah, the stuff I can’t find on Usenet is usually old and very obscure. Anime, without the right usenet subs, is particularly hard to find.
