Aside from the point that Jellyfin is meant to browse your own personal collection of files usually after the fact…
Some file formats like mkv do work even if partially downloaded, so if you’re downloading a torrent for a free libre open source movie, choose the option to download chunks in sequential order, and I think there’s a way that you can watch while downloading.

Yeah, that’s a very good point! I use it sometimes manually on qbittorent. Can it be done automatically for all downloads on qbittorent?

TIL it has purposely not been implemented by the main developers in over a decade for ideological reasons. There are scripts and forks to enable it by default.
