If you encounter Chinese peers, I recommend using the Enhanced Edition: https://github.com/c0re100/qBittorrent-Enhanced-Edition
Mind you, this is a fork and it is not whitelisted/approved on private trackers.
This Enhanced Edition is also unrelated to this project. So we can't really help you with it.

I love to test these things out but it's really hard to get a Mac. You can rent one online for example but the remote experience is very laggy and the price is astronomical.

(I am not a dev, I just enjoy tinkering with bugs, issues, trying to find a solution.)

What do I need to do when any update is released?

Just replace the file you use to run it now, with the new file downloaded from that Github project.
There is no other steps, nothing to install. "Static" means everything is included in that one single big file.

First and foremost you can ignore most of this post. My question is: Why do you even run a full qBittorrent or the .AppImage? Why not use the -nox version that only has WebUI? You can use this project to grab a fully built, latest, -nox static build: https://github.com/userdocs/qbittorrent-nox-stati...

You get a target field when you make a shortcut to the .exe file. You need to modify the shortcut's properties.

Eh, I would simply put a simple script in Crontab. Every reboot, just killall qBittorrent and once it's not running (wait with a while?) just start it. This feels like one of those things where I'd write a program to change values in a .CSV file. Spend like 5 hours on it. And if I did it by hand, it...

Because it works. Python upgrades are different from other languages. One version change and it can break every script you run. This is the reason. The developers change this automatically installed version every now and then when a new qBittorrent version comes out. But yeah, don't worry about the ...

- Check advanced settings, you can bind qBittorrent to the public network interface - Check if you have qBittorrent WebUI enabled, it may take up a port you need - Check ports used: -- in command line: netstat -abn -- with GUI: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/tcpview - You c...

Interesting, thank you for your feedback.

And the other menu items are fine?
If so, I will check what's the difference and submit a Pull Request.

Do you experience issues elsewhere?

1) you can go into settings -> advanced -> "Always announce to all tiers" 2) make sure you have port forwarded on your router and the right port is set up on your pc 3) make sure your firewall is not blocking qBittorrent 4) you can add this public tracker list to any public torrent and usu...

Could you post actual example names? Like 100% exact names?

Also, ChatGPT and Bing AI can write regex for you, if you don't feel like learning it.

As it says, "port 8080 is already in use". Change the WebUI port in settings, or the config file, or just look up what uses that port. How to look it up? Depends. If you use Ubuntu, Google: "List listening ports and programs Ubuntu". If you use OpenSUSE? "List listening port...

Close qBittorrent. Go into PIA's client settings and look for protocol. Switch it around, OpenVPN usually works. Now open qBittorrent and you should have an interface you can bind to. Basically some VPN "protocols" have a new interface, some don't. That's the reason. Bit of FAQ: What's a p...

te] You can always add new trackers to them, if they are public torrents. There's a lot of advocacy for this, but I've yet to hear a good argument for why it's useful. Modern clients don't need trackers at all for public torrents. In any case the great majority of public torrents die before their l...
