I saw this hack of stuffing a neck pillow with items if you want to move some weight. 😅
Yes. We flew TAP a few times in august (to & from the US and then within Europe a bit). Even having booked first class on the flight to/from Portugal and the US, they weighed our carryons in the connecting flights once in Europe even thought they saw our first class ticket. One time of 4 they let it slide, but the other times, we had to move stuff around to get under the limit. They charge 80euro in line at the gate if your bag is overweight.
EM1, they do - I was just at Lisbon in August of this year and had our carryons weighed on our next flight within Europe (to Germany). The scale is mobile and on wheels so able to be moved. Why would I make that up? I have no skin in this game.
Usually not but sometimes

If it’s huge they’ll check it in the carryon size basket they have, but I’ve never seen them weigh it
They might check for size (unlikely though for any of those), but not for weight except if it looks super oversized
Depends on the airline but some do! Check their website
