+# Introduction
+
+qBittorrent is available for Linux, Windows and macOS.
+It can be compiled from source for any of those platforms, but binary packages are provided for convenience.
+
+# Linux
+
+qBittorrent binary packages should be available in your distro's repositories. Both the `qbittorrent` (qBittorrent with GUI) and `qbittorrent-nox` ("no X", for headless server environments) packages should be available.
+
+It is recommended to use always use the latest version, and new issue reports should be filed against the latest stable version (or a more recent `master` commit) only. However, some distributions do not always provide the latest packages. In this case, you should either: use an official alternative binary repository (such as the official PPAs for Ubuntu), use an alternative unofficial binary repository (at your own risk) or compile from source.
+
+Currently, two official PPAs are maintained for Ubuntu:
+
+- the latest stable version: https://launchpad.net/~qbittorrent-team/+archive/ubuntu/qbittorrent-stable
+- the latest commits to `master`: https://launchpad.net/~qbittorrent-team/+archive/ubuntu/qbittorrent-unstable
+ 
+qBittorrent is also available semi-officially on FlatHub: https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.qbittorrent.qBittorrent
+
+# Windows and macOS
+
+The **only** official source for Windows and macOS builds is this page (and the links within it): https://www.qbittorrent.org/download.php.
+
+Use any other builds at your own risk.
+Issue reports from using other builds such as PortableApps and the like are not accepted.
+
+You can also compile from source if you wish, by following the relevant guides:
