I'm not sure which client to use with my Object Storage buckets. I see that there are a few out there, but I want to make sure I'm using the right one. Do you have any recommendations?

If you prefer a visual interface for interacting with your buckets, the Cloud Manager or a file transfer utility like Cyberduck are solid options.
If you want something command-based, the Linode CLI or s3cmd utility are good options, too. We tend to see a lot of customers have success using s3cmd, and there's a ton of documentation available out there on how to use it:
S3cmd : Command Line S3 Client and Backup for Linux and Mac
If you're looking for high-end performance, the s5cmd utility has some awesome numbers in terms of upload and download speeds. Check out this article from Joshua Robinson on s5cmd benchmarks with installation instructions:
