- | Initial Complexity | New users may find the interface and plugin system daunting |
- | Resource Usage with Plugins | Adding multiple plugins can increase resource usage, potentially slowing down less powerful systems |
- | Basic Features | Lacks many advanced features found in other torrent clients such as a search engine. But, the functionality can be extended with plugins. |
- | Manual Setup for Auto-Start | Users need to manually set up Deluge to start automatically on system boot |
- | Cumbersome Recently Used Folder List | The recently used folder list is hidden in submenus and requires multiple clicks to access |
- | Outdated Interface | The user interface appears sparse and somewhat outdated, which might not appeal to all users |
