Comments and Reviews

Comment summary: Transmission is praised for being a lightweight and easy-to-use torrent client, particularly favored on Mac and Linux. Users appreciate its clean and intuitive interface and its efficient performance with minimal resource usage. However, it faces criticism for lacking advanced features like automatic bandwidth management and sequential downloading, issues with proxy settings, and security vulnerabilities. Some users find it less reliable on Windows due to stability issues and limited features compared to uTorrent.

Very clean functional interface. The native UI options work great on different platforms, and having CLI and web access to the same setup is nice too. The core program is fast and reliable. The only downside is it does not support sequential downloading (although there is a patched edition out there that does).

The developers of this have had their software repeatedly hi-jacked by attackers who infect it with malware. After the first time, you think they would have taken the necessary requirements to prevent this happening again. They did not and of course were attacked again. As of now, all they have done is change web hosts. There are so many security improvements they could make to their systems, but they don't. They will not learn and will be infected again.

There was a serious incident several years back yes, but it was fixed quite quickly and the root issue addressed. I have no affiliation with the project, just a user who was affected by the issue and watched carefully to see how it was handled to know whether it was safe to use. If you stick to distro packages and official distribution channels this should not be a problem. If you wander off into unofficial channels or "patched" versions floating around then you are on your own.

Really the only torrent app you should be using on macOS.

I like minimalism, but the lack of a dark theme in 2026 is a dubious pleasure.

There is no file search when adding a torrent file.

I installed Transmission just to see how it works. My first impression was: it is too crude, not intuitive at all. Maybe it is OK for not experienced torrent users. I prefer applications with all the tweaking and tools at hand.

It's a good torrent client but it's sadly one of those programs that doesn't let you change the display language, it just forces you to use whatever language it detects from your operating system.

It's good other than that, it's missing some of advanced features of qBittorrent but it gets the job done.
