want to run a bittorrent client on a headless server. The server is a raspberry pi so it is limited a bit limited on resources.
Whats your favorite bittorrent client with a good command-line interface?

I use rtorrent and it’s pretty straightforward.
I use a headless raspberry pi and just run transmission on it and access it from a browser over the network
+1 for transmission. In case you also want to use a VPN, there’s a neat all-in-one docker container that I run on my raspberry pi 4: https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn
I think rtorrent has an ncurses interface but qbittorrent-nox has a web UI.
Transmission has a proper daemon. The CLI isn’t very ergonomic for manual use, but there are various frontends you can use.
