Bittorrents blocked?

I noticed none of my bittorrent downloads will start unless I use DNS providers other than NextDNS. Which security settings and/or blocklists can I turn off to stop blocking bittorrents?

    Might be easier to disable nextdns when using BitTorrent.  I imagine many sites are on many lists.

    I believe the oisd blocklist (see snippet from their homepage) is supposed to be torrent-friendly. For starters, you can probably test your config with that as the sole blocklist

      Ruby Balloon This worked, thanks! Removed all blocklists except this and NextDNS starter.

    I've got just about every security and privacy option enabled, and a bunch of blocklists enabled, and no issues with my torrents. The Easy lists, Fanboy lists, and AdGuard lists all seem to work with torrents.
