You can use a slider on a null to control the distance.
Then use index of a layer + slider to link everything together. This is all via expressions on the position of each layer.

You can use SourceRectAtTime to calculate the size of the text box. Once you get that you will be able manipulate the shape to move with the length of the text.

This worked for me. I did unshy the camera and switched the viewer to “Active Camera”. The expression was simplified to using “.toComp([0,0])”. I hope this works for you and or puts you a step closer to your desired result.

The only other thing I have is drawing a motion path and have a null follow that. Then you can pair the effect center to that null.

If the goal is for the “Circle” to follow the “Object to follow” why not make a stroked shape and link the position to the follow object? That way you have a 3d object following a 3d path. I attached a project to demo. I didn’t watch the tutorial so I am not sure if this is what you are after.

Reduce the preview quality to below full.

I didn’t notice much either, but I’m on a phone right now.
The speed of the comp and the description you provided reminded me of issues I had when making scrolling credits. I did a quick search and found this site. http://endcrawl.com/blog/why-are-my-end-titles-jittering/
Hopefully this puts you on the right path. I wish I could provide more insight but that project was 8+ years ago. It’s all about math and making sure the speed of the comp.

Did you rig it with DUIK? You can create your artwork at the scale you need it when “zoomed in.” For example I have done some scaling with rigs and created the artwork in a 4k comp, and then scaled them down in AE. That way when you scale it up you aren’t losing fidelity. You could also remove the rig, tick Continuous Raterization, and then re-rig the art. Either way unfortunately requires some re-work.

I don’t know the exact reason behind it but yes, this is normal. I’ve experienced this a number times and it doesn’t always effect every piece equally. Unless you are scaling the artwork you don’t need it enabled.

Which version of AE are you using?
