Carapace: A multi-shell completion library and binary
Beyond zprof (https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/zsh-profiling) not really I'm afraid. I did the majority of my zsh-prompt hacking 10 years ago and haven't thought about it since. That snippet could be from anywhere.
You could peek at something like zprezto https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto or pure https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure for tips.
Fetching git/hg/... info is always slow, so try and speed that up where you can (as to how to do that, uhh... I know my prompt has a dirty-state check nicked from pure for speed reasons). You can also cache any `asdf init zsh` or similar to a file and do the same "run in background" trick so the next shell will have any changes.
The biggest improvement I can remember was dropping zprezto for my own much smaller config, I really did not need much comparatively. Mostly some git info and "good default" options. I use zgenom for a plugin manager but only have 3 plugins, probably I should just dump it and inline the plugins to avoid getting owned one day.

I think Linux might be the superior platform for gaming at this point.
Is the command line really so scary? I enjoy using it from time-to-time (usually not for gaming related reasons) and I like things like Prezto to make it look pretty.

- What is the best alternative to the Guake terminal in macOS with the most closed-in look and functionality?

Best terminal app for MacOs
I switched from Oh My Zsh to Prezto years ago. OMZ at the time was excruciatingly slow, but that may have changed. Maybe I should take another look at it, but Prezto has been great.

I was frustrated with the way Windows handles Hebrew on Latin keyboards, so I wrote an open-source IME for Hebrew to make it easier! You download it, type in the phonetics, and it gives you the Hebrew.
I installed iTerm2 and zsh shell with Prezto and I love my command line on OSX I use homebrew to install any tools that are missing and use pyenv to manage my python version (which I also do on Linux) that and the clang/gcc from the OSX command line tools and I pretty much have a full Un*x shell for anything I need to do

Reasons to change the default terminal to Warp
Moreover, there are tools were made on top of those to provide more functionalities, and fill some of the gaps, for instance, oh-my-zsh, Prezto, oh-my-fish, and much more. However, the default embedded terminal in macOS is still lacking something. That's why iTerm and other terminal like Hyper. It provides you a set of customization to boost your productivity.

How do I move git branch from right side to inside the prompt in prezto?
See terminal below. On the left side is my prompt, and on the right side is information I presume came from the git module in prezto.

Master any CLI tool with this one weird trick
I recently heard about prezto which is a fork of ohmyzsh but haven't tried it yet (most of the plugins I use are in ohmyzsh) it is more customizable and less bloated than ohmyzsh.

Choosing ZSH framework
If you want to try a different preconfigured shell environment, big names are Prezto and zsh4humans. Prezto, like OMZ, comes with a plugin manager built in; zsh4humans does not.

What is the trick theprimegen is using to search his entire computer from terminal emulator?
Here are his dotfiles (as also linked in the youtube video). The 2 scripts that he uses to achieve this are located in bin/.local/scripts, more specifically tmux-sessionizer and tmux-windowizer. You should read them to understand what they do and modify them according to your needs. TLDR: he is using fzf to parse the results of his search and sends the results to tmux to create a new session based on the basename of the selected file.

If you haven't looked into TMUX I'd recommend that with tmux-sessionizer

Different ways to config keymaps
I started my journey after watching ThePrimeagen video in which he had that snippet of code:

Tmux Application Startup Script
I have a similar script for my applications which need starting (React Native app and docker-ized backend). I use ThePrimeagen’s tmux-sessionizer to start the repos in separate sessions, use similar tmux commands to your script (new-window, select-window, send-keys etc) to start up the various things and then end in vim.
