Please, help with highlights.
those are gitsigns. read :h gitsigns-highlight-groups. i think the first 3 ones (gitsignsadd, gitsignschange, gitsignsdelete) would need their background cleared.

Gitsigns thinks that new lines in Windows are differences
I have installed Gitsigns in a Windows machine and when I execute the method diffthis it thinks that the new lines are differences.

Algebraic data types in Lua (Almost) post
Lack of tooling/LSP support compared to Lua. A rather popular neovim plugin, gitsigns, recently switched from teal to regular lua for (among other reasons) the tooling.

Hacky way to return to original window after using gitsign's `diffthis`. There must be a better way to do this.
It's also nice to ask him directly.

How to commit part of file in Git
the only reason I do some git stuff in vim and not _always_ in the shell, is because tpope is very thoughtful and fugitive.vim provides nice ways to deal with hunks or hunk partials (visually selecting a range within a hunk, for i.e.)

GitUI
I agree, navigating blame history is incredibly useful, if only to save you from asking the wrong person about a particular change.
Vim's Fugitive[1] can do this and also in Textmate to. So I would hope that most editor git plugins can.

Is it too late to learn emacs as a vim lifer?
You'll want to invest the time in learning Magit, which will change your life once you get the hang of it (and I was a heavy user of Fugitive in Vim previously!), and it's unlikely you'll find a better integration with GDB anywhere else on the planet than with Emacs, though I can't say that empirically. You just need to take the plunge and start learning it, then cut over and take the hit in productivity one day when you're feeling adventurous. You'll ultimately become far more powerful than you've ever been. Especially if you delve into elisp over time. I use Spacemacs, which is bloated and has bugs, but it has so many features that I haven't undertaken the massive endeavor to replace it from scratch yet.

webify.nvim - Open the current file in the remote's web interface (github or gitlab) or yank its URL
For an option that works on Vim, if you already use tpope's vim-fugitive, there's vim-rhubarb (for GitHub) and fugitive-gitlab.vim (for GitLab).
