Fuzzy Finding with Emacs Instead of Fzf
> Emacs has better fuzzy finding
With due respect to Mr. Petersen, and as an Emacs user myself, I really can't agree. When I fire up fzf I just type and generally without any thinking I get what I want. Emacs takes some configuration to get to that point; the built in flex completion is, for whatever reason, not as robust in my experience.
In fact, in my current config I've been using fzf (or really skim) for completion within Emacs, via fussy: https://github.com/jojojames/fussy

What is the name of the nice light theme
Good idear, I asked in the repos https://github.com/jojojames/fussy/issues/37

Prioritize exact match in completion styles
As oantolin mentioned, fido completely overrides your preferred completion-styles which I called out here recently as a blocker to really adopt it if you care about performant fuzzy matching. I've done a lot of messing around with configuration in this space and my preferred setup is vertico + hotfuzz. You might also want to check out fussy which supports a bunch of different backends (FWIW, hotfuzz with the dynamic module enabled for me had the best combination of performance and behaviour, but fuz-bin and fzf-native are also great).

Why use Vertico/Consult if i can just use fido-vertical-mode?
Currently, vertico + orderless + fussy (https://github.com/jojojames/fussy) enables you to find something with both fuzzy matching style and orderless style. I tried with Fido, only fussy works, but not orderless.

I'm switching to emacs from neovim
It's not enough to have a different way to list search results, however. If you want the Telescope experience you need a fuzzy completion. I have been enjoying fussy

Fuzzy Finding with Emacs Instead of fzf
Someone kinda has with fussy. It supports multiple filtering and sorting techniques, including fzf compiled as a dynamic module for emacs, flx, flx-rs, and more.

Is doom emacs still actively maintained?
Keep an eye on Crafted Emacs which has a v2Beta release branch. It's been evolving. The v2Beta is a rewrite. It aims to provide a minimalist leg up on vanilla Emacs for new Emacs users. It's goal is to take you from first steps to a point where you have learned a great deal and built your configuration. Then you may be comfortable ditching the Crafted Emacs boilerplate configuration entirely. Think of it as a starter kit. Follow SystemCrafters on YouTube (live stream mostly) & Matrix (they are leaving Discord). Despite the live stream being lengthy, there is much to be learned as you bear witness to David figuring things out. Over time, you pickup on those techniques such as looking up a variable state, reviewing functions, evaluating snippets of Elisp in real time, etc. Also recommend, Mastering Emacs as a fantastic ebook with free updates. Once 29.1 ships, no doubt, there will be a free update to the ebook.

Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
I'd recommend you have a look at crafted-emacs. It's an example of how far Emacs can actually go without third-party packages. Then you can add minimal packages (completion and specific tool integrations) to further enhance the experience.

Emacs bankruptcy
For me it's quite stable except some issues I had with vertico. Anyways, I first started to rewrite my doom config into plain vanilla emacs (with org mode literate configs), and then I discovered crafted which allowed me to remove some code with commonly set sane defaults, e.g. stuff from https://github.com/SystemCrafters/crafted-emacs/blob/master/modules/crafted-defaults.el.

Kudos to Emacs developers
I have been surprised at how many people have so ardently defended only using built-ins and raw package.el and their own janky ensure methods when use-package was available and did it all better. And, it even lets you configure Emacs itself (not just packages), as well as seamlessly letting you try different package management tools like straight.el. Getting it into Emacs itself hopefully makes this a more prevalent way of showing users how to craft their own config.

Switched to VSCode... I miss Atom :(
If you need a staring point for configuring there's some nice light ones like emacs-bedrock and crafted-emacs, and also some fully pre-configured Emacs distributions that you can choose from (though those look harder to configure to one's personal needs to me, but I haven't tried them so wouldn't know).
