When all information is shown, like in qBittorrent, you can simply ignore the info you dont care about.

This has worked for everyone so far, it cant be that hard.

Old UI doesnt mean bad UI. It means time tested, reliable, proven. Bad UI is UI which isnt being used because its so bad.

This still has a cognitive load though.

I think so, too. It seems people here would prefer a table view. However, I'm uncertain about the value added by including all this information in a table. Personally, I find myself ignoring them 99% of the time.

When dealing with hundreds of torrents, I believe filtering options and a simple text filter would be more useful in quickly finding specific torrents. What are your thoughts on this?

That being said, based on the feedback, it seems necessary to reduce some vertical space in these cards.

The first time, yeah, but its incredibly easy to filter after IMO
