So I watched this guide https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KQe88-hm5_E

Few Q’s, want some A’s:

Could I use lfsm instead of a cloth the bottom?
Could I actually just slip pot and never give it a proper repot for the rest of its life and be fine?
The guys said his worked great on a north facing windowsill, could I do this?
Do I have to be on top of getting rid of dead foliage?
Could I keep it outside during the summer fully exposed?

You could, but it won't be the same.

No.

Maybe, but they grow much better with more light, and they are less susceptible to rot and disease too.
Do I have to be on top of getting rid of dead foliage?
Yes.

Cephs don't do well if it gets too hot for too long so that kind of depends on your growing conditions.
