Seeing the official website states that the client is “barely supported,” I’m wondering, is it worth using a different one?

    I second docker. I do use the docker version on my server, but I use docker on my Mac all the time. I really enjoy not having to screw around and have to go through the process of installing certain things and docker desktop on Mac just works. I pretty much use homebrew or docker.

    I don’t have any issues with the Qbittorrent desktop client. I’m also running Qbittorrent Docker.

        I’m running a media server on my MacBook. MacOS by default doesn’t support split tunnels, so I’m using qBittorrent + VPN Docker container to achieve that. That way, only qBittorrent is using the VPN file, no other service.

    It worked well in my experience, no problems at all. I used it for a while a couple months ago until I set the web interface back up on my server.

    I can’t complain, but I do have a weird issue when I close qbittorent it doesn’t quite or stop… It freezes and shuts down unexpectedly :/ Very strange.

    I only use it for public trackers tho, but after testing all the alternatives on Mac, qbittorrent is probably the best feature wise.

        Thanks for the pointer, but this happens even on a fresh reinstall. I guess it’s somehow related to my MacOS version I haven’t updated for a while :/.

        Anyway, I going for Asahi Linux in my next install so I don’t want to tweak further into macOS. I’m getting tired to fight my system instead of working with it !
