Giving access to PDF
In the past, I've used PDFoundry to give access to my players. It's been a while for me, so YMMV.

Now that PDFoundry has been deprecated, is there some way to use PDF character sheets?
As the title. PDFoundry has been deprecated because FoundryVTT now includes built-in PDF support. Now, PDFoundry had extra features that I don't know if they exist yet in vanilla Foundry. For example, the ability to use a form-fillable PDF as a character sheet (which, in practice, allowed me to play almost any RPG system using the VTT with some minimal configuration).
- Possible character sheet app? [all systems]

Strixhaven Worksheet for 5e
I also appreciate you can just use a form fillable pdf on foundry thanks to the PDfoundry Module. However I've had some difficulty with that and so wanted a non-pdf option.

Look for a VTT that can do these things (again)
- PDFoundry, which allows you to set form-fillable PDFs as character sheets

Where to learn coding for Foundry?
Yeah, learning how to do other stuff in Javascript is a good way to start. But then maybe look at things like the example scripts in the community macros: https://github.com/foundry-vtt-community/macros

Any good "VTTs" for in-person games using a TV for maps?
If you code at all, then Foundry jumps even higher up the recommendation list since it's designed intentionally to allow people to build stuff and add functionality. As someone who used to mess with R20 macros and their proprietary API, this is probably one of my favorite benefits to Foundry. They have some typical documentation though if you prefer examples the community macros repo is great for that.

Too long game breakage rant with a short follow up question.
Read some of the shorter/simpler macros from https://github.com/foundry-vtt-community/macros to get a sense of how they work.
-
How can I select multiple tokens easily?
This macro in the FoundryVTT Community Macros GitHub repository "selects all actors of the same name on the scene." I haven't tested it, but these macros have never given me issues in the past, and I recommend checking out that repo if there's ever something you're looking for.

Questions about Foundry, (Fog of War)
Quick size control (#2) is generally handled by macros. There's a macro for quickly swapping tokens between 1x1 and 2x2 in the community macros. If you want some that will just bump a token up or down 1 grid size, I can get you mine personal ones in a bit when I'm at my main computer/
