I use rtorrent

It's kinda bad in a lot of ways, but it works. Easy to set up and run on a headless server, not so easy to configure or manage beyond that. Atrocious lack of documentation, relies on weird inconsistent and unmemorable key combinations, some features like stopping downloads on low disk space don't work half the time, and sometimes it randomly remembers old torrents I removed months ago.

I've considered switching to some other client that runs headless, but I haven't bothered looking into it yet.
I had worked on a script a while back that at least sets it up to use ruTorrent for a UI but it does suck in many ways.


I have Deluge on my seedbox and have Transmission on my mac.
