Nobody else has said Tixati is there a reason i shouldn't be using it?
It's not open source and there are open source alternatives that do the same things or more.
It's not very likely at all that you're going to get screwed over by your torrent client, but it is a good idea to use open source, auditable software for something as sensitive as torrenting.
More of a "better safe than sorry" than a "you're actively harming yourself".
Well, I’ve never heard of it until now. I just need things to download, and the other ones mentioned here do that just fine. I can’t imagine what advanced technology Tixati offers that it needs ti be proprietary.
