I use rtorrent and it's pretty straightforward.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Transmission has a proper daemon. The CLI isn't very ergonomic for manual use, but there are various frontends you can use.
I use a headless raspberry pi and just run transmission on it and access it from a browser over the network
I think rtorrent has an ncurses interface but qbittorrent-nox has a web UI.
