Torrent client
-
Not sure why... but it seems that Qbittorrent is now the most used torrent client by far, while Utorrent seems to have vanished. I still use utorrent, but I use version 3.5.5 build 46606 which is the last 3.5x before they went to the disastrous 3.6x

As I recall qBittorrent became popular as it was one of the first complete torrent clients built on the mode modern libtorrent, which enabled higher performance and stability (especially when dealing with lots of torrents). It's still regarded by many as one of the best choices.
µTorrent on the other hand suffered a major PR disaster when they started putting more and more advertising bloat in their software and eventually even malware. Unsurprisingly a lot of users fled.

@Rapsey-0 yes, at one point, utorrent loaded games into their software. I think they still have some link to trending videos that nobody watches.
