I maintain 2 documents that try to handle those questions:

Awesome, I will check those!
Assuming that you mean the source format of your data (and not the
output format for the WMS service), for raster sources I still rely on
the speed of a properly indexed GeoTIFF. (yes the cool kids may use
other formats ha)
Yes, that was what I was wondering about, thanks!
For years now, I have been half-heartedly tinkering with the
modernization of my weather website saakeskus.fi. At the moment (since
2008), I'm using GrADs to create PNG images which are available through
a website. I have been thinking of modernizing it by using mapserver as
a backend and leaflet as a frontend while creating the layer
source/input files with GDAL. But it's a slow process... I have to learn
mapserver and GDAL plus Python to put it all together. It's a hobby
project which doesn't generate any income, so it tends to always end up
lowest on my todo list.
In terms of output formats, I recently had some back-and-forth with an
admin of an Esri WMS service, about their use of output formats in their
WMS service - it seems the format discussion is never-ending, and as
important today in year 2024 ha.
I haven't even thought about those :D. It's probably gonna be PNG or
JPEG, whatever works best in the tests
Hope your summer is going well,
Thanks! Same to you!
-Stefan
