Zed is now open source
Elpaca [1] does not do this. I use it and it works a treat.

Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
As others have said your packages work well and should still be widely supported. use-package has been blessed by the maintainers of emacs and will be a default package when Emacs 29 is released. If you are looking for another package manager /u/nv-elisp 's https://github.com/progfolio/elpaca would be a good one to checkout.

If you like Straight, you should try Elpaca
One of my biggest challenges with it is for packages that have extensions. Where they just work with Elpa/Melpa but then when you convert over to Elpaca they break and you have to go digging around Elpaca's manual and try to figure out the right file incantation that will make things works.
- Using package loader (e.g. use-package) in file besides init.el?

Will any emacs package manager let me audit packages before installing them?
Elpaca has the elpaca-fetch command for this purpose. It fetches a package repository and will display the commit log. Each commit hash is a button which will open a magit diff view if magit is installed. It could very easily be extended to work with vc, ediff, etc. Here's a screenshot of what the update log looks like:
