Emacs 29.1 Stuttery scrolling with (pixel-scroll-precision-mode)
Agreed. I've had success with beacon-mode for the same purpose. Making C-v and M-v scroll by half pages also helps.

I use beacon-mode for this.

Configuring emacs
I’d add that for 1) beacon is a good package. For 2), this may be an issue where you have multiple emacs configuration files. This is a serious problem. 3) be patient, and use the magic GC hack. To add to that, you should probably set the GC threshold to be high. 4) projectile? 5)emacs -nw.

- Does eglot support autocomplete candidates with the same name?
-
anybody here do completion-on-demand, instead of automagically (dwim) ?
You could try corfu. It has auto-completion disabled by default and works most places with M-Tab. Or you could set a longish corfu-auto-delay (0.75s say), and let auto popup only when you stop to ponder a while.
- is it just me, or LSP mode is very slow in emacs?
-
Code completion candidates displayed in minibuffer
Corfu supports this. Or at least it allows you to move completions to the mini buffer which I find quiet useful.
-
Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
A substantial section of the community is using corfu instead of company, but I wouldn't say company is out of date by any means. In emacs 29 eglot will be a built in, which might act as a replacement for lsp-mode depending on what functionality you need.

Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

How do I take priority from Evil's escape key?
I am currently using evil and corfu, but I want to configure such that pressing a single escape will invoke corfu-quit when its UI is active (because pressing "C-g" is harder).
-
Emacs lags when making the auto completion pop-up with corfu
A few days ago I found an unexplained slowness when using Corfu on Emacs 29 with pgtk. I stripped my configuration to basically just Corfu, and still had a noticeable delay. Maybe it is related to your problem. https://github.com/minad/corfu/issues/307

Replacing strings with Unicode symbols.
The most straight forward solution is probably the package company-math. (that's what I use but with corfu and cape)
