The answer from Chris in your other post must be what you were looking for.

qBittorrent

it's open source, meaning there are no ads and
you don't have to pay extra for extensions and add-ons

it's not only qbittorrent you have to worry about,
it's what you download with it that can easily have extra unwanted baggage.
that and badly configured file sharing software can open up your entire computer/network so others can see/steal everything on your pc.

There are no "safe" torrent clients!
When torrenting, you are exchanging data between PCs (and servers that can introduce malware). Also, you'll never know in advance if the torrent you're downloading is safe.
So whatever client you use; it's up to you to have optimum protection against viruses, malware and the like installed on your PC.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm always happy to learn something new.

I'd also recommend you use a VPN client as well.
A VPN is a Virtual Private Network.
It protects your privacy, by masking your IP address.
If you're downloading *ahem* official content, your ISP may frown on that.
Also movie studios have been known to send out letters saying that you've downloaded copyrighted material.
I use a service called Private Internet Access.
