I have used almost all the torrent clients available for Linux & I finally settled with Deluge.
Which torrent client do you use the most & why ?

Transmission - lightweight; does what it needs to do.

I tried Transmission a long time back. The problem that I faced was Transmission just refused to start downloading those torrent which had a bad health.
By bad health I mean low seeders/peers. Transmission just refused to connect to the seeders/peers.
Qbittorrent & Deluge both successfully downloaded the same torrent.

Transmission on Ubuntu installs, Ktorrent on Kubuntu. Both get the job done.

I recently switched to Qbittorrent. I wanted so badly to use Ktorrent, but it has some serious stalling issues. I haven't been able to figure out how to stop them... But Qbittorrent works great, so I may just stick with it.

@everyone who replied
I am really curious. What is your opinion about Vuze ? Have you used it ? Did you like it ?
Edit: Just Googled about Vuze and found that its not open source,
Unlike say qBittorrent (https://www.techradar.com/reviews/qbittorrent), Vuze is not open source software. It comes in a freemium version, but that contains adverts.

No way I am going to use Vuze.

No way I am going to use Vuze.
Besides, it is bloated and resource demanding and it has ads (but I tested it out long time ago with Ubuntu 10.10 or something like that)

I mostly just use BitTorrent.
I used to use uTorrent since you didn't have to install, but now it runs an installer anway.
