It’s because some chars aren’t decoded properly. &amp should be rendered as just &. Hinting that more than this is not properly rendered

  edit: my client renders it as the actual character, even though it's in a code block.

Looks like a bug. But as long as they upload legitimate files, I don't see the problem.

Maybe they're not PC users and maybe those are servers??....

Haven't noticed this in Tixati. I've only noticed better d/l speeds since I switched over.
- +1 for Tixati :)
- Tixati isn't whitelisted on pretty much any private tracker because of how easy it makes spoofing other clients.
- Is Tixati open source
