Arguably some of these are not standard anything (just something I was happy with) but equally there is also a lot of normal stuff people are used to in several software applications for many decades now.
I would still recommend using CUA Mode over simply rebinding C-x, C-v and C-z. CUA Mode does a few more things than that, and is smarter about it: <https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/CU...>
Also, you can prefix code blocks by two extra spaces on each line:
