what's better to manage ports? ufw or firewalld?

I'm trying to open a port for transmission but before I get to know either of the 2 options I'd like to know what you recommend and why.

OS is xubuntu 24.04

I like firewalld. Its also used on many enterprise distros (RHEL, SLES).

But if you just have to open one port for something, just use what's installed on your distro.
