I have a lot of problems with stability using the linuxserver/transmission docker image in my *arr stack. I setup restarting on unhealthy status in docker compose (using the following test command curl --fail http://localhost:9091 || exit 1) but even then, sometimes I just find that my donwloads have stopped and find that the container is not running at all. Do you have an alternative to suggest, which could run in docker compose?

Im running qbit in docker and haven't had a single issue with it.

Same. Qbittorrent and deluge have given me no issues.

I'll give it a go! Is there a GUI for it? I like to sometimes check the progress live and transmission provides that out of the box.

There's a web interface included that works OTB.

Seems to work very nicely and it's much more responsive than transmission. Great, thanks!

You can also use a custom UI. I recommend VueTorrent.

In fact, using this mod, you can even have Docker download it and keep it up to date. In qBittorrent you just need to change the WebUI location to /vuetorrent.
