1337x.to works well too. If you use a website translator, like Firefox Translate, rutracker is great too.
Otherwise, private torrent sites (e.g. TorrentLeech) are the best addition to Usenet.
Keeping ratio is pretty easy if you set up Cross-Seed. It finds torrents matching your local files (e.g. Usenet downloads) and adds them to your torrent client without using additional space or downloading them again.
It takes a bit of time and careful reading until it’s set up.
For matching existing data you need to set up dataDirs and partial matchMode. Ideally your local files are organized (e.g. TRaSH guide) to improve cross-seeds ability to find matches. If you need help there’s a Discord linked on their website.
Honestly I just got a few fresh free-leech torrents a while back, seeded them for a week, and built up enough surplus to not have to worry about ratio for the foreseeable future
What benefits does Usenet have over Debrid? I’ve been meaning to try it for years, but after finding out about Debrid services, I don’t see the point when I can have a 1Gbps direct download to any torrent I want, without having to rely on seeds.

Yes. If you’ve got enough buffer anyway there’s not much reason to set up Cross-Seed.
Depending on the tracker this can work better or worse. E.g. I was on a tracker with minimal free leech content, so Cross-Seed helped me a lot.
