Plat is really only useful for leveling up quickly (elixirs). Even then, most players have access to the free-plat offers. But as for items that are farmable, I will say that there isn't a whole plethora of rare items to farm at the moment. There are very rare items in game that are non-farmable but are generally regarded as fun to acquire through farming, merching, etc. Recently, many players have been requesting for new, rare vanities. So hopefully down the road we see some of that!
2. Depends what you want. For PvE sake, I'd go with mage or bird just because they have great AOE damage (allowing you to level quicker). If you get to level 100, every class is viable with PvE and PvP.
3. Really depends on whether or not you choose to use elixirs/buy pets. It can take a day or two; otherwise it might take a long time to level up solo.
4. PvP is what keeps me playing this game. Endgame is a ton of fun if you find the right people to play with. You will run into some selfish, annoying attitudes here and there, but for the most part the community is kind. I could go on and on about PvP, so feel free to ask me any specific questions about it. But it's worth trying out!
5. There are no gems/awakens as in AL. All the items that are available can be farmed, with the exception of rings/pets/vanities/customizable faces. The closest things to gems/awakens might be the items required for crafting. Some maps drop item recipes which can be used to craft a stronger item.
6. I believe the game is fairly active at endgame for the most part. If you decide to take the long way up for leveling, be prepared to play some games solo. The players who were at the last few caps have stayed (which is why the endgame community is prevalent), but it can be tricky for newer players to find games with others when leveling. Get to endgame, and you can find an active community.
