I’m spinning up a new seedbox and wanted to know what is everyone using nowadays? I was using deluge via the thick client and rutorrent previously. Are they still king?
edit: I should have also mentioned that I plan on running this server headless so I will need to be able to access it via a thin client or a web browser
A lot of the macOS networking stack (at a lower level) comes from FreeBSD. People have argued that the BSD network stack is superior to Linux whereas Linux runs applications faster. At a low level, I think this is still accurate.
I’m a Ruby developer but I tried to port a Linux application written in C to macOS before and it was mostly rearranging positional arguments to system API calls; however there’s probably a lot more going on that I’m not aware of too.

Yeah, but they added a bunch of high-level abstractions on top over the years. Nowadays it’s much closer to the way you do networking on mobile operating systems like iOS and Android.

But I imagine the Ruby standard library also takes away a lot of the complexity, right?

That’s right, but I was talking about a C project.
Oh sorry, I misread that
