Bonkers that its the default on many distros instead of qbittorrent
it's qbittorrent, not gbittorrent. that's really why.
transmission has been the default on so many gnome-based distributions for a very long time because of its gtk frontend.. it also has a qt frontend, curses cli, daemon, windows qt build, and native mac versions...
qbittorrent also runs on more than just linux, but is qt. only qt. how many qt-only applications find their way into the default package set for gnome or gtk desktops released by debian, ubuntu, mint, fedora, redhat, suse, etc, etc.
