How to replace a custom platform's homepage with another homepage from another platform domain?
If you haven't done 301 redirects before you can start reading the dos and donts. For example, many websites use 301 redirects to force "www" and/or "https". Crossdomain redirects are mainly used for migration.

General questions about implementing hreflang using XML sitemap
This feature was introduced by Google. It is also supported by Yandex. The only difference I've noticed is that Yandex doen't like BOM in the sitemap encoding, while Google is OK with BOM. I'm not sure about Bing or any other search engines.

SEO Title Length
The problem with long titles is that they will appear truncated in most browsers. Therefore, the search engines will truncate them as well. Sometimes there is no way to make the titles shorter. One way to interpret this issue is "if the title contains some irrelevant words kindly remove them".

Rankings Dropped to Nothing
Thanks so much Mike. It actually turned out to be a bad plugin update causing the issue. Took a while to figure that out, but we're good now. Why these plugin authors don't test more before rolling out updates, I'll never know. Thanks again! John

How to implement multilingual sitemaps when not all pages have translations
I continued to think about the matter and thought of this approach for adding the pages with no localization to the multilingual sitemap (just putting it here): <url><loc>https://example.com/page-with-no-localization</loc></url> Or is it better to put a simple link to the page in the sitemap? <url><loc>https://example.com/page-with-no-localization</loc></url>

Does having a sub-domain on a different server affect SEO?
+1 to what Ross said. Subdomain hosted elsewhere won't have any impact. However, you should consider moving your subdomain to the sub-folder if that makes sense for your SEO Strategy.

301 Redirects Backlinks?
Here are some examples of circumstances in which we can use a 301 redirection: When we must make a change of domain. When we have to make a change in the URLs so that, for example, they are semantic (or friendly). Take advantage of the positioning of an old post that is already obsolete to create a new article with higher quality and updated content.
