Transmission doesn't start downloading any files

I think transmission is a horrible software anyway. I never set this thing right. I set it to /mnt/sda1 in the config file, but still it tries to download to /tmp. Then it says the storage is full.. Smh who made this like that? Does anyone use this? Btw it keeps disconnecting every 2 seconds. Throwing errors and stuff. Aria2 was way easier. I set the chmod to 777.

Can you even share a simple transmission config?

I can’t help with Transmission, but I would recommend looking at rtorrent as a replacement. It’s fairly easy to configure via one file.

There's permissions requirements for configuration folder and destinations folder. Transmission + shift webGUI will knock your socks off

I use rtorrent but once in a while I want to try transmission but I get disappointed every time.
