Instead of (say) instantly loading the torrent link or file (like every other torrent app) an 'operation in progress' box appears and takes a while to load or connect to the torrent. It's not just the distended operation though - you're required to stay within the app until it connects.

If you try to (say) browse online or use another app like Word, the 'operation' actively prevents you from doing this or will automatically return you to Bigly until the initial operation is complete.

And then, of course, shutting down the app seems to be a whole production too. Instead of just immediately quitting like every other app, you'll get another 'operation in progress' box appear as it shuts down and quitting the app can take a while too (up to 20 seconds).

Is there anyway of turning off this box hijacking or letting these distinct operations occur behind the scenes instead?

thanks

That's not happening to me... I've installed it from brew and there is no need for me to do anything weird except the occasional "this app was downloaded from internet so you allow it" when updating from brew (stuff that gets updated natively doesn't even ask this)
