Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

Is there a package or something for code completion in org mode files for src blocks?
At least for Elisp source block one can use font locking to create a custom Capf. Add cape-elisp-block from my Cape package to completion-at-point-functions. Even if you don't want to use Cape you could just copy it to your config. It is a short function.

Corfu + Consult History?
You can use cape-history from my Cape package. This is similar to consult-history only utilizing completion-in-region instead of completing-read.

How to configure corfu for arbitrary orderless matching?
Haven't tried configuring it accordingly, but here's the docs: https://github.com/minad/cape

Emacs lags when making the auto completion pop-up with corfu
corfu is blazingly fast. Orderless is as well. What is not always blazingly fast is your completion providing backend. You didn't mention where your slow completions are coming from. An LSP server? Dabbrev? Maybe a remote machine? Have you combined results from various backends (e.g. using cape?). Some completions backends are unavoidably slow, others are just not well optimized.
-
Replacing strings with Unicode symbols.
The most straight forward solution is probably the package company-math. (that's what I use but with corfu and cape)

Emacs bankruptcy
Some time I'll add a mixin for Cape which would make the completion stuff really nice.
-
Simplest way to add strings to be used for autocompletion?
If you're set on using the completion system (M-TAB) for this, you could install Cape and use the cape-abbrev command to complete your abbrevs.
-
Like company-org-block, but for completion-at-point, corfu, and friends…
Oh, of course your efforts are valuable. I didn't mean to sound discouraging in any way. The point made by /u/xenodium is good - if you have a special candidate source with special behavior, it makes sense to provide a separate lightweight Capf. In contrast, using Tempel for this purpose doesn't make much use of the actual template functionality. Tempel is only a good fit for Org blocks if you use it already anyway, as I do. There is also value in having reference Capfs around, which will be helpful when developers create their own new completion functions. This was also the intention when I created my Cape package, which comes with many simple Capfs. It is always interesting to see what other Emacs users come up with. I am thankful for such efforts - it is inspiring!

Minibuffer faces for highlighting file names in a project while de-emphasizing long directory paths?
It would be great if you add your snippet to the Vertico wiki. Such tweaks can be quite instructive for others who want to achieve the same or similar effects for other completion commands.

Magit-branch-checkout list order
If you want completion to be sorted by your "most recent" I suggest you have a look at completion libraries. One example is vertico; when you enable savehist mode, the variable magit-revision-history, containing the branches you visited is persisted between sessions and vertico use that offer completions by most-recently-used, by default.

Input completion in emacs
I think vertico is best alternative recently, really fast on Linux, macOS and Windows.

[Emacs Git] Add :vc keyword to use-package

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.

Best emacs configs for Javascript and/or users who don't like to memorize keybindings?
Next you "only" have to remember (elisp) function names. "Completion UIs" like ivy/counsel, icomplete, helm or vertico/consult, give you a nice auto completion list on M-x (choose the one of them, you like the most). Some of those Completion UIs will display existing keybindings and a short documentation for commands, near the auto complete candidates. So you will start to remember more keybindings without "learning sessions", just because invoking functions via keybindings is much faster (more convenient).

How to combine rtags and vertico
I thought that lsp and rtags were different tools to do different things. Regarding lsp, I configured lsp-mode in my init file indeed! Currently I'm using Vertico (plus recommended sub-packages at github repository) and lsp-mode.
