Completions in mini buffer
You can display icomplete/fido vertically if you like that better with (setq icomplete-separator "\n") or with https://github.com/oantolin/icomplete-vertical

What I'd like to see done in Emacs
I don't use icomplete nor vertico most of the time, but I am very familiar with them. I've tried lots of completion UIs: default completion, ido (with ido-completing-read to get it everywhere), icomplete, vertico, selectrum, helm, ivy; and I've written several myself: icomplete-vertical, live-completions, grille, embark-collections-completions.

Is Ivy worth having?
Helm commands only work in Helm. Ivy and Counsel commands only work in Ivy. Consult commands work in Selectrum, Vertico, Icomplete Vertical, and maybe some other interfaces. That's all I meant. Of course, that only matters if you don't wish to use Helm or Ivy.

consult: Asynchronous grep - works with default completion, Icomplete and Selectrum!
Consult supports asynchronous candidate sources now! This allows to implement grep and find commands which update the candidate lists while you type. Consult is made to work well with the default completion system, Selectrum and Icomplete-vertical.

Selectrum now deprecated in favor of Vertico
I noticed over the weekend that the venerable Selectrum package made by Radon Rosborough has been deprecated in favor of Daniel Mendler's Vertico package.

Sidekick is a Emacs package that provides information about a symbol inside a single window.
https://github.com/radian-software/selectrum is getting superceded by https://github.com/minad/vertico within just a year or two.

Straight.el: next-gen, purely functional package manager for the Emacs hacker
I have been using straight for a while now and I think it is great! The ability to lazy load everything by default does a lot to make Emacs snappier (or at the very least, faster to boot). Being able to pull packages directly from git (be it local or a forge) makes package development a lot easier. raxod has a lot of really sleek, modern emacs packages that I would encourage everyone to check out, spectrum[0] and ctrf[1] in particular are really great as well.

- Keybinding autocompletion / helper. Like in doom emacs.
