Awesome! But I hope you aren’t using the actual program “bitTorrent” cause that shit had a litany of privacy and security issues that I don’t even know where to start describing. A good one nowadays is qBitTorrent

I’ve cancelled Netflix. Just wasn’t using it enough for the price. Instead I will entertain myself by downloading Linux distributions on BitTorrent.

I exclusively use qbittorrent to download Linux distros.

Don’t forget to upload some ISOs as well! Keep the network healthy and happy :)

You don’t solve that by using another program. You try to reduce the damage by using the torrent client in a dedicated virtual machine and reset the machine to the original image at regular intervals.

Yeah or you could, you know, just download a program that isn’t problematic.

I had to upgrade the 4x8TB drives in my Synology NAS box to 4x12TB to hold all of the extra Linux ISO's I was downloading.

There are just so many distributions.

Got a recommendation for a Nas? My 12tb is getting so full of Linux bistros, I have to expand faster than I thought

Synology’s smaller units are great and with a few docker configs you are ready to go.

I use Synology, works as smb, cifs, and nfs for my in garage proxmox stuff. It’s pretty good for the money
