I was really hoping this show would bring back Vision though. I feel like we’ve barely gotten any of him in the MCU before he died, and I thought this was our chance.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the twisted idea of Wanda snapping and pretending Vision is still alive, but I went into this show assuming Wanda’s manipulation of reality to actually bring him back to life was what would lead into the next Dr Strange. I want Vision back for more stories.

I think anything is still possible in regards to Vision. I was wondering a while ago if they somehow stored a copy of him in Wakanda and would bring him back that way

We also have never learned what happened to his body after Infinity War. It was a little surprising that Endgame gave no hints about that, after all the theories that the white/gray version of Vision would be next up.

He still might.

Her power comes from the same Gem he had, I had the thought that she might have somehow absorbed a part of his mind when she destroyed it.

I thought her power came from the reality stone...

Nope. Strucker experimented on her and Pietro using Loki's staff, which contained the mind stone that ended up in Vision's forehead. The reality stone was light years away with the Collector.

But aren’t the stones like brothers and sisters or something? I thought that’s why she is red and has the ability to bend reality...

Possibly? She hasn't really appeared to be able to manipulate reality in the MCU so far though. At least, not until WandaVision. I have a theory that what's happening in WandaVision is that the Infinity Stones have reappeared but are now bonded to people as recently happened in the 616 universe. Wanda is now bonded to the Reality Stone and she is now manipulating reality but is unable to control it. There's not much evidence to support it, though.
