Coolest projects, GO!
https://github.com/shiro/map2 - another neat remapper program. more complex and no gui but more scriptable

How to create shortcut to executable?
I've also used a remapper tool called map2 but for a different use-case. Map2 documentation links to some of the scan codes though which could be helpful if you end up having to map the function keys to something... not really sure how those work but I've used it to map multimedia keys on a logitech k400 htpc keyboard before.

Do you still miss anything from Windows?
Maybe map2 can do some things you need.

Need Help! Left Ctrl + C and Left Shift + C does not work
As a temporary workaround and probably a long shot: but if not hw related and you are getting the keypresses but they're being ignored... maybe you could get away with some keyboard remapping apps? Maybe map2 or kbct

Need help with rebinding CapsLock to ctrl+c (or better method if someone has better idea)
A linux alternative to AHK I made called map2 lets you do that easily, although there are other remapping projects as well.
-
Programs that are holding me back from completely switching to Linux (Manjaro)
for number 3: One way to bind mouse (keyboard, controller, etc.) keys similar to AHK is map2. It's significantly easier to use than Xorg keybindings and lets you do application specific bindings. Your can bind keys, key sequences and even complex actions such as scripts.

Map shell scripts to game controller button presses
I'm the author of map2 that lets you map keys to other keys, sequences and complex actions like running a script. I haven't tried it with wiimotes (but I will when I find some time) so one would have to inspect which key events are emitted in order to remap them.
-
Per-Program Mouse Button re-mapping
I'm the author of map2 which allows you to write simple scripts to remap buttons (incl. mouse), also you can do so per application. It's very flexible, but might require some programming skills, I recommend reading the docs and check the examples folder (there is a logitech mouse example too).

Remapped keyboard settings isn't respected by some games
Mapping thorough X11 might not work everywhere and it's clunky. I'm the author of map2, it lets you do AHK-style key remapping and scripting on evdev level (meaning it's below X11 or wayland), so it works everywhere.

Scrollbars Are Becoming a Problem
The only solution I've found for addressing this in any meaningful way is AltSnap[0], which lets me avoid needing to find window borders for any resizing or moving operations.

Can't use ALT+right mouse button in Remmina to resize windows

How to make windows' borders 'magnetic' such they snap to each other?
Pretty much only possible with 3rd party tools. https://windhawk.net/mods/slick-window-arrangement https://github.com/RamonUnch/AltSnap

I cant believe Microsoft hasn't improved these fundamental features over the last 5 years! Search/explorer still the same! (or worse)
For resizing you can try AltSnap (available through Scoop as well) - it mimics what's available by default in Gnome and some other DEs on GNU/Linux and it's pretty useful once you get used to it - you basically hold down a key while left/right clicking the mouse to move/resize a window that you point over (and all the precision you need is to point at one of the four quarters of the window).

removing the border on a window
I know that AltSnap has a feature to make a window borderless, Hold ALT and middle click and click toggle borderless.
