Just install the libretorrent and you're good to go, its pretty easy and straight foward. https://www.f-droid.org/packages/org.proninyaroslav.libretorrent/
We can recommend apps and provide technical backgrounds for using torrent technology but sites that offer pirated content is not something that should be discussed here.
Why? My understanding was that popular websites removed discussions of sources for piracy so as to not lose advertisers. Lemmy doesn't have that issue. I'm not sure I see any reason not to allow it?
Because the people who graciously host Lemmy for our benefit can get in trouble for it. Let's not bite the hand that feeds us.
the people who graciously host lemmy
That's the entire point of federation. There isn't a single server that hosts all of lemmy. If someone runs an instance, and is ostensibly paying for it, they can choose what kind of content is on their instance.
So yeah, if the people who run a particular instance choose to make that a rule, then that's their prerogative. And vice versa.
This has nothing to do with federation really. You're posting content to platforms hosted mostly by private persons or in some cases small non-profit organisations, that's the deciding factor.
I'm not talking about breaking hard rules here, I'm talking about common courtesy. Even if they don't explicitly ban such content, knowingly posting content that can get the host (again, usually a natural person) in personal trouble is just simply something you should not do. It's a dick move no matter how you look at it.
"Ohhh it's not explicitly forbidden so I can post whate"-no, you'd just be an asshole.
It's a different story with for-profit companies as those don't have a natural person on the hook in the majority of cases. Though I personally think you should still rather abstain from it.
There are just three options for you with your requirements. You could just try them, they probably all work. Maybe try the recently updated ones first. I think you're going to get a sub-par experience, anyways. Phones are just not the best choice or built for torrenting.
And please do some research if what you're trying to do is allowed. And if not, what are the consequences and what do you have to pay attention to, to not get into trouble.
Put.io. not an app, but a debride service.

Yeah, this guy writes so poorly I suspect him/her of trolling.
