Transmission

Transmission is a free and cross-platform BitTorrent client.

Setup

The software can be setup via docker with the haugene image that includes an openvpn tunnel.

Leeching/Seeding

Leeching is the process of only downloading a file, Seeding describes the download followed by alsow uploading it. When the downloaded torrent should not be seeded the best way is enabling and setting Stop seeding at ratio: to 0 under Torrents in the settings. This will stop the process of seeding once a package is downloaded allowing other torrents to start downloading.

This is not a legal advice. Take your local laws into account when downloading torrents. Some torrents can be copyright infringing and therefor illegal to download. Use Transmission only to download legal and safe torrents like the Arch Linux ISO. Seeding it can help the community.
