    No browser integration so it's useless. For downloading from copied links there are better tools (jDownloader2 with reCAPTCHA integration and so on), for torrenting also (qBittorrent). Only way that app could shine was classical download, but the program doesn't offer intuitive browser integration, so it sucks.

What is Varia?

Varia is a download manager based on aria2 that utilizes GTK4 and Libadwaita to provide a easy to use interface that integrates well with the GNOME desktop.

Varia supports some basic functionality you'd expect from a download manager such as resuming incomplete downloads upon relaunch, but (right now) doesn't support saving files outside of your default download directory. I want to change this in the future while still having a minimal set of permissions with Flatpak.
