Official:Forum rules/Banned add-ons - Official Kodi Wiki

"Pirated content" add-ons, websites, and services typically do not include the following (to be determined on a case-by-case basis if necessary):

...

B. The add-on has the potential to access pirated content, but is potentially useful for downloading legal content as well. [For example, an add-on that downloads torrents is not, itself, a problem, since a torrent can cover a wide variety content, including legally distributed videos.]

From what I've seen on forum LibreElec dev consider torrent apps for their pirating usage and do not take other uses into account. Their policy is more strict than Kodi's one.

Forum rules are different than policy/rules/decisions about LE's official repo.

LE team decided they did not want to host downloaders in the official repos. They're not banned addons. Just not published in the official repos. That's all. It's a team decision.

Linuxserver.io repo is included in the official LE repo, so no.

Yeah i thought it was ODD that they were not supporting this torrent but plex.

Besides that, are there any other applications?

If you want advise on torrent topics, you're in the wrong forum. Thread closed.
