Sorry! That really stinks! Wonder if qbit would work better
Tried qBittorrent and Transmission, they don't do better, in fact they see the same number of peers as Tixati does. And i don't know what would happen if i had two clients try to download the same file, probably nothing good.
Are you trying to do this too?
do you have a port open for the torrent client? also, you are speaking of torrents that otherwise have peers, right?
Yes i do set up port forwarding every time, but no i don't know if those even have peers. They should because i don't think RARBG is that dead, but maybe they just don't.
Then again most peers i do get come back as "Timed out connecting" and "Connection reset", so it does make me wonder if i'm just doing it wrong. It seems to happen whether or not the VPN is on.
EDIT: i'm using Proton and this is how i set up port forwarding, i do notice a difference
Sorry, no I just recommended it because it’s typically the standard recommendation in my experience.
That dies sound frustrating though
