I used to be a user of RARBG and in the wake of their absence, everyone seems to be suggesting Torrentgalaxy. Unfortunately, no matter how popular the torrent is, I haven't been able to download a single file from there. I have tried downloading the torrent file and using the magnet link, both will add the torrent to my client where it connects to the tracker and sees the peers but never connects to them. Magnet links and torrents from other providers work just fine. What am I missing?

It's working fine for me. I have no idea what would cause that. Only thing I can think of is maybe if you have your qBittorrent (or whatever) bound to your VPN connection and you forgot to turn the VPN on?

I use deluge on my seedbox and don't use a VPN.

Double-check and confirm that your seedbox allows public torrents. Some seedbox providers only allow private torrents and will intentionally block public torrents on their service.

Same, deluge and no VPN

Remove this tracker from your list and see if they start. udp://open.stealth.si:80/announce
