How do you show minibuffer details?
The screenshot might picture marginalia as another user already mentioned. What package you want to use depends on the completion framework you are using. For built in completion framework together with vertico, icomplete or selectrum marginalia is the package you want. If you are using ivy instead, then ivy-rich provides this functionality. Surely helm has some similar functionality.

From looking at these examples, no. This is what the shortdocs look like: https://imgur.com/5pIu9A6.png. A brief summary, grouped by kinds of operations with examples. Built into Emacs, linked to from the *Help* buffer no external documentation is required.

But there are still a few things that I can't wrap my head around, and for which I couldn't find a satisfactory answer online:

Anyone using GNUS in 2023?
I use bbdb for contacts ((bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'message), and https://github.com/unhammer/gnavatar for faces). I use https://github.com/unhammer/gnus-recent/ since I often want to go back to (or org-link to) some message I recently looked at.
