About asshole
Asshole, like any other body part, is wonderful. One will fully understand how magnificent the asshole is after a prolonged period of constipation. So I disagree that "asshole" can have a negative connotation. Calling a developer an asshole for me is a metaphor that does not work, a jerk would be OK, but an asshole- no- I refuse to accept asshole as a pejorative word.
About sledgehammer999
As far as I know
sledgehammer999 (
SourceForge profile,
GitHub profile) is currently the leading developer of
qBittorrent. I agree that his animosity towards portability is exceptional but
qBittorrent is his project, he is free to develop it as he wants to and he is not obliged to listen to what users want. I think that
sledgehammer999 is a capable developer who has fixed lots of problems (now
qBittorrent is far more stable, it doesn't lose its settings on forced termination, it doesn't hang on exiting (once it needed hours to exit). I appreciate his efforts on
qBittorrent yet I do not think that asking for donation to implement a coveted feature is a wise idea.
About PortableApps qBittorrent
qBittorrent Portable by
PortableApps is portable but I would not recommend using it since if it crashes the settings will be written in AppData.
