Yeah, they are messy. I tried BiglyBT a few years back, and while I love a lot of features, I think that was overkill for sure. qBittorrent is the golden standard at the moment for sure.

Also I don't understand the upload torrents limit, ok, limit concurrent uploads, but everything I'm seeding should be available all the time

That's one (of many) reason I'm glad I switched to linux, Back in windows xp days Microsoft tried limiting the amount of "half-open connections" for its users "security". But even today, some routers just aren't powerful enough to handle too many connections, and often times the cheap routers that ISP's provide are limited on purpose either by custom firmware or just by hardware limitations.

How many torrents do you have??? I seed over 7000 torrents concurrently using qbittorrent

I've about 2k, but I've had to adjust the weird defaults
