How is this on the front page?

Was a good program when i used it many years ago. If i look at the past, GUI designers shall look at popular file sharing programs to learn how a good GUI looks like and what features are needed.

Transmission was great back when I used it. For Windows users there’s now WebTorrent, which has a similar UI (but a much more compact feature set)

Easily the best aspect of Transmission is the fact that it can run as a daemon, accepting commands from anyone within network reach who has the right credentials. I use it as part of the books [1] tool (a CLI/TUI/GUI Library Genesis interface) through a helper script [2] to enable torrent download of individual publications from libgen torrents. This helper script provides commands like tm-ls (list active torrents), tm-add (add a torrent to the daemon) and tm-add-selective (get a single file or set of files from a torrent) provide a convenient interface for those who live on the command line and/or want to use Transmission from within other tools.
