If you're not using WebUI (not seedboxmaxxing) - this doesn't concern you tho.
Someone on alt reports a serious security vulnerability concerning qbittorrent WebUI instances, does so publicly outright in github issues without consulting anyone first, prompts hectic scramble for the creation of a security file and the race to figure out and fix the vulnerability (this took them 2 days)

Shit like that is why I hate open source projects.
Shitters whine ("not privately disclosed"), then do performative shit ("security policy file") and it takes days for an actual programmer to have a look at the issue.

It is kinda amazing how few open-source "developers" can actually program lol

Closed source developers also have the same problem.

It's what happens when you are paid in exposure/resume padding.
Then of course the fact you wouldn't really want to disclose the fact the open source project you work on is a torrent client/fetish website/other neurodivergent venture until you are talking to the actual fellow neurodivergent coders in the interview process and not HR goobers.

I'd much rather tell potential employers that I'm a developer on a torrent client than a developer for rdrama tbqh

The advantage of saying that you are a developer here is that you can say it without it being true. No one is going to call here to check.
