    Had the sane issue on Firerox+uBlock the laptop, but on phone is working (Kiwi+uBlock).

    Try with other browser, with or without adblocker

    Right click, copy link, paste somewhere, copy long STRING between hash/ and ? (that info hash).

    Then put magnet:?xt=urn:btih:STRING into torrent client. Title should fix after metadata receive.

    You need to add the magnet link to your torrent client. Right-click, copy the link, and then add that link in the client (Transmission or qbittorrent or whatever you have). The exact procedure varies based on the client, but it usually involves a big green plus sign icon and pasting the magnet link into a designated field.
