Perhaps I’m in the minority with this but downloading the desktop app took me 10 mins with a good down speed, and a verified torrent option could lessen the strain on servers and make downloads quicker for some users (I’m not technically versed but I presume this is true?). It might be a minimal amount of users who would opt-in but it could be a worthwhile addition?
Personally, it never took more than 5-10 seconds to update, and I’ve been using a VPN from all over the place.
The app auto-updates. I wonder how they could make that work through torrents.
If your problem is common, I would do my part and seed, sure.
