On Wikipedia we can get a decent overview of Learn BitTorrent clients: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_BitTorrent_clients.
It should be noted here, that Wikipedia sources are often quite outdated.
From this comparative, it does feel appropriate to further constraint our research to the following three clients:
All clients have similar capabilities and provide a similar set of features. Looking at look-and-feel of the website, Transmission looks the most attractive. If I would be a regular, non-dirty-hacker user, I would be attracted by Transmission. Other clients feel to me more niche, yet I would put qBitTorrent on the second position. Deluge (BitTorrent), still potentially attractive, with significantly lower user-base, being quite feature complete, still looks a bit ”hackie”. Both Deluge (BitTorrent) and qBittorrent depend on libtorrent, while Transmission is using its own BitTorrent protocol implementation.
