    This was my favorite Torrent client on MacOS, very simple and nice UI and is super fast!

    They just updated it to v3 after years.

    Download Transmission FTW

    Tip 1: Go into settings and cap your upload speed to 55KB/S. That is the best ration in order to not get throttled download speeds yet not choke your upload if it was unlimited which could also affect your download speeds if your upload was used at max capacity.

    Tip 2: In settings, tick the box to allow it monitoring download of torrents in the Downloads folder, that way they are automatically added into the client once a torrent is downloaded.

    Tip 3: This is personal but I also like to have it being sent to the system tray and also start minimized in the system tray so do that in options as well if you like.

    Transmission is still the very best Torrent client with clean and easy to use UI that just works.
