I noticed Debian does this by default and Arch wiki recommends is citing improved security and upstream.
I don’t get why that’s more secure. Is this assuming torrents might be infected and aims to limit what a virus may access to the dedicated user’s home directory (/var/lib/transmission-daemon on Debian)?
@rc__buggy @Quail4789 And that is a very good point but the only thing I ever use transmission for is downloading distros. If my distro is already compromised then it’s already all over, transmission aside.
