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.

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.

Strange, diff-hl works extremely well and looks nice (and also works with other vcs) - some themes have not set appropriate faces but that is very easy to fix. diff-hl
