  • Honestly this is already my daily experience with Windows : having to figure out why my controller doesn’t work on a small selection of games when it’s in wireless mode, having to install a third-party patch to run a game in an exotic definition, fix a game not launching on the right monitor even though it’s set as main display, installing a mod just to bring controller support to a game that lacks it, etc etc. and I could go on all day. Personally my Windows gaming experience has been sub-par for years now, looking forward to switching (again) later this year.





  • I’ve had a poor experience with Deluge, a bug report completely disregarded years ago as I wasn’t able to provide (very technical) details to the developers without some assistance, which they smugly refused to provide (I don’t act entitled). I then stumbled upon a post where one of them discussed the reason why they wouldn’t add workarounds in the installer as qBittorrent did (firewall exception and a couple of other things I can’t recall right now), their reasoning and their wording struck me as strongly ideological, and it made me uneasy. I’ve had a similar experience with Affinity developers who (again, by way of ideology) refused to add an “interface scale” parameter to their programs, adamant on letting the OS handle the scaling, even though I couldn’t change my OS scale because it messed up other programs. Their response was “it’s the other program’s fault”. Very helpful. 👍🏼

    Anyway, I was trying to say I don’t like Deluge. To answer your question I know it runs via a variety of interfaces so I wouldn’t be surprised it’s your best bet. I personally use qBittorrent .
