help needed with linux and torrents

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?

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.
