After uTorrent went south, I started using qBittorent on all platforms and haven't looked back since. Found it better than any alternative, might want to give it a try if you want client+ui in one package: https://www.qbittorrent.org/

I wanted to evaluate it in the past but their downloads page has a giant warning, "The macOS version is not well supported", so I didn't bother downloading it.
I am actively trying to use it on macOS/M1 and it does have bugs. Random crashes every few days, UI crawling (doing anything, right click, whatever) with more than 20 torrents, etc.
The GUI is buggy to say the least, but the actual torrent transfers are faster in every step of the way compared to Transmission 3.x in my testing.
