I don’t have any issues with the Qbittorrent desktop client. I’m also running Qbittorrent Docker.

What is the benefit of running qBittorrent in Docker? Container proxy?
I’m running a media server on my MacBook. MacOS by default doesn’t support split tunnels, so I’m using qBittorrent + VPN Docker container to achieve that. That way, only qBittorrent is using the VPN file, no other service.
Thank you. Appreciate it. Good way to get multiple things done at the same time.
Yeah. If I use the default VPN app, many websites would simply block my IP address, so it’s a good way to separate Qbittorrent from other apps and services.
It works perfect for me except for a weird bug that’s been documented for half a decade but no one is solving.
The bug being that when your DNS slows down and the connection is cut for a second. The torrent client doesn’t automatically try to restablish connections you actually have to restart the client to get your torrents going again.
