Quickest path to a decent zsh setup?
Although there are all sorts of Zsh starter kits and plugin managers out there, based on what you've described as an OMZ user, it seems like you would benefit most from investing in customizing your OMZ config with a $ZSH_CUSTOM folder and then saving your $ZSH_CUSTOM folder in a cloud git provider like GitLab, BitBucket, or GitHub.

Oh-my-zsh without oh-my-zsh?
Zinit seems overly complicated. I prefer antidote

Introducing Antidote - A native zsh continuation of the antibody plugin manager
Some notable features: - Antidote is not written in Go - it's a native Zsh implementation - Your existing antibody ~/.zsh_plugins.txt file should work without modification - All antibody commands are implemented (bundle, help, home, init, list, path, purge, update) for compatibility - If you load your plugins statically like you did with antibody, the performance is still astounding and will continue to rival any other plugin manager (Go not required, though I have nothing against Go - it's truly a great language) - I combed through old antibody issues for non-implemented feature requests and plan to implement some of them. Some, like zsh-defer support are already available - Cloning and updating are done in concurrently just like in Go - The feature roadmap is available by looking at the open GitHub issues

Oh-my-zsh without oh-my-zsh?
Not quite - the path:lib annotation tells antidote to load all the scripts in Oh-My-Zsh's lib directory - not all its plugins which are in its plugins directory. It's confusing, I know. OMZ's lib directory is not required for every plugin, but a lot of them unfortunately do depend on lib. You can load individual scripts from lib with antidote (ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh path:lib/clipboard.zsh), but honestly if you are ready to move away from OMZ entirely you might really like something like zsh-utils or zephyr.

I think zsh4humans is for experts despite the name, what do you think?
In any sense, I don't really use Prezto any more. I have focused my efforts on the small portion of it I actually use, and they're in zsh-utils now.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing antidote and zsh-utils you can also consider the following projects:
zinit - 🌻 Flexible and fast ZSH plugin manager
zunder-zsh - ⚡ A minimalistic zsh configuration with sane defaults.
zpm - Zpm— Zsh Plugin Manager
zephyr - :wind_face: A Zsh framework as nice as a cool summer breeze
zsh-vi-mode - 💻 A better and friendly vi(vim) mode plugin for ZSH.
dotfiles - My personal dotfiles with nvim
zsh_unplugged - 🤔 perhaps you don't need a Zsh plugin manager after all...
zsh-launchpad - 🚀 Simple, educational dotfiles template to get started with Zsh and learn about its features
