Specifically torrentbytes on Linux. On Linux mint I can download from other sites no problem but if I click a torrentbytes link, it sits there with no seeders forever. I installed arch and a client as a test and it downloaded no problem. Does anyone know why.? What’s the difference between Linux mint and arch that seems to block torrent downloads?
I’ve noticed plenty of torrents that don’t work right if you require encryption in your torrent client. If the client you used on Arch has encryption disabled by default but the Mint client has encryption mandated by default, this would explain the difference.
What client are u using
Ubittorrent
I suggested using qBittirrent or Deluge
There is also biglybt that I heard is good for some few seeds/hard to download torrents.
With the limited info you have given my first thoughts would be: dns: ipv6 vs 4; firewall; basically anything network related
Have you opened a port in your firewall?
No, as I said, I can download just fine from other sites.
Well, you do you, but I’d give that a go just to remove it from the list of possible problems.
