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?

How to Make Emacs Look Cooler with Simple Customization
Elpaca. https://github.com/progfolio/elpaca - an alternative to the built in package manager. Very fast with an eminently decent UI, and allows for any or no fine-tuning how any given package should be installed.

emacs can be "heavy" but still blazingly fast
If you get around to actually measuring it, let me know. I'm collecting data points for comparison with Elpaca.

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:

https://www.spacemacs.org/ is a layer on top of emacs that solves a number of shortcomings including a more modern UI. If you use https://github.com/plexus/chemacs2, you can always run emacs and spacemacs independently, both for learning, troubleshooting etc.

Is it worth renouncing evil and becoming a good person?
I asked this same question a year and half ago and since that post I started reading Mastering Emacs by Mickey Petersen which was really helpful, I used Chemacs to keep my evil config around in case I give up. But I ended up dropping that config and I realized I wasn't really into modal editing. It took me one month to get used to my new config but that was worth it, everything in Emacs became consistent.

Starting fresh?
Perhaps the biggest game changer in my new init file is chemacs2. This allows one to choose one among many possible ".emacs.d" directories to use for the emacs that is being invoked.
What are some alternatives?
