What can people recommend as a replacement?

I used uTurrent in Windows times. When I switched to FreeBSD on my desktop I 
used Vuze / Azureus. But it was resource hungry and at some point in time no 
longer works for me.
Then I tried qBittorrent and I am very happy with it. Simple, stable, good

net-p2p/qbittorrent is my choice


Same here, using it on FreeBSD/macOS/Windows and not seeing any issues (even 
without KDE on FreeBSD).



What is good website to search for torrents?

I used azureus a long time ago, and liked it, but IIRC at the time it
didn't scale very well when managing many torrents and its java
dependencies were a pain.

I tried several clients a few years ago and the one I liked best was
qBittorrent. It also was the one that was most like azureus.

I'm pretty happy with "transmission", but I prefer to work from
the command line (transmission-daemon, transmission-remote).

Once one gets used to specify a torrent number like this:

 transmission-remote -t 20 -l

(list information about the torrent file number 20)

it is pretty easy to use.
