I'm a bit surprised to see so many torrent posts. Are most people still using Torrents? Are most piracy users aware of programs like sonarr or radarr?

I tried Usenet, wasn't a big fan of it, to be honest.

The way I see it, unless you live in a country where your traffic is constantly moderated for torrent traffic, there's no reason to not use torrents.

Also, IPv6 torrenting is for the most part unmoderated by ISPs, my friend who lives in California only torrents via IPv6 on qBit and he had gotten 0 emails from his ISP. However, YMMV depending on country.
