qBittorrent for a lightweight and open-source BitTorrent client.

undefined> QBitorrent

Okay, question that hopefully doesn't make me look too stupid - please be easy on me! I followed the instructions for Firefox + uBlock + paid VPN. However qTorrent is recommended but the list of browser specific downloads, does not include Firefox. Very confused right now.

Not sure what you are asking for, but one thing I can recommend is that for qbittorent to go to settings > Advanced > Network Interface to tie your VPN to the client. This will help in the event your VPN cuts out reducing chances of your IP address leaking.

Is that the "network interface"setting? Bit new and clueless to this

[–] toxictenement@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 years ago

Yes. Usually your VPN will be something akin to the name of the vpn or the vpn client.

Not really the correct place to be asking about this

Qbittorrent is not a browser extension. It's a gui application.

You don't install it specifically for our into Firefox.

If you're trying to use the web interface, just use that. No need for anything specific.

I don't understand, I suggest you create a separate post and explain better what you are trying to do.
