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.

Emacs Advent Calendar 7: ordeless, embark 1.0 and some bric-a-brac
orderless. A highly configurable completion style that matches multiple patterns in any order against minibuffer completion candidates.

Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
An example relevant to your list would be some changes many people are taking with their completion framework - using package that leverage core emacs functionality rather than replacing it with a complete package that 'overrides' it. Consult, vertico, orderless and associate packages come to mind here. If you do a bit of a search you'll find plenty of info. Here is a video from Prot on the subject, but there are many others as well. I think Prot actually went on to write his own completion system to overlay native emacs functionality as well.

How to configure corfu for arbitrary orderless matching?
You didn't mention, so I'll ask, are you using the orderless (https://github.com/oantolin/orderless) completion style?

Help wanted: Zsh completion like Vertico+Orderless
Fuzzy completion ala Orderless would be awesome: hitting space during completion acts as a pattern separator.

Selectrum now deprecated in favor of Vertico
I dunno—I like how Vertico+Counsel feel. I'm not sure how good the support for Orderless and Embark are in Ivy, but I really like how those packages compose so nicely with the Vertico+Consult ecosystem.

How to get helm like narrowing behavior with selectrum?
In general, you want either orderless or prescient, with my personal preference being the former.

How to get corfu completions that include substring matches?
You probably want to investigate completion styles. There are many builtin styles, from basic, which just does prefix completion, on up. But there are also 3rd party styles. One of the most powerful is called orderless. Considering all these styles, there really is a ton of flexibility in how you can get to a completion candidate like some-named-something (some, s-n-s, sns, soso, [a-z]{4}-na, e\b \bs, ...). You can even configure more than one style at a time (and usually do).

What are the kinds of things you've written Emacs Lisp for?
Well, I've written some general purpose Emacs packages (orderless and embark) that I use a lot, but I also write Emacs Lisp for one-off tasks.

Show HN: Tere – A Faster Alternative to CD+ls
I like it. Would be nice to see orderless-style (https://github.com/oantolin/orderless) completion, and a config not to enter the directory by narrowing the completion to one, requiring enter to be pressed.
