There could be a few reasons why your toilet is not filling up with water after you flush it.

It sounds like you are ready for a flush valve replacement.
Your toilet makes noise when filling up with water because the water flow may be too strong, causing vibrations in the pipes or the fill valve. This can result in a humming or whistling sound as the water fills the tank.
To troubleshoot a toilet flush tank that is not filling up properly, first check the water supply valve to ensure it is fully open. Next, inspect the fill valve and float to see if they are functioning correctly. Adjust or replace these components if necessary. Also, check for any clogs in the fill valve or supply line that may be obstructing water flow. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider calling a plumber for further assistance.

The toilet is what uses the most water in the US. This is because whenever you flush your toilet it can use up to 10 gallons of water, if not more. Unless you have an outhouse because you can't really flush the water down in an outhouse.
The biggest difference from an old toilet to a new one is the water consumption. An older toilet can use up to 16L of water per flush! A modern toilet only uses between 3-5L per flush. A big money saver!
A flapper on a toilet is a rubber or plastic seal that covers the opening at the bottom of the toilet tank. When the toilet is flushed, the flapper lifts up to allow water to flow from the tank into the bowl, causing the toilet to flush. After the flush is complete, the flapper falls back down to seal the opening and prevent water from leaking out of the tank.
Your toilet may not be filling up properly due to a clog in the water supply line, a malfunctioning fill valve, a problem with the float mechanism, or a leak in the tank. It is recommended to check these components and make necessary repairs or replacements to ensure proper filling.
Toilets do not function on suction, they flush by using gravity to empty the water from the tank into the bowl, thereby causing the S-trap built into the toilet bowl to siphon. The only way to improve the flush is to cause it to flush with more water (which sometimes helps, sometimes doesn't), or buy a siphon-jet or other power assisted toilet. An older toilet may be to plugged up with mineral deposits to improve the flush much, the amount of deposit depends on what's in your water, how often you clean the toilet, and other factors beyond your control.
