Does `<Component />` or `<Component></Component>` really make a difference

Single vs double tag components. Is there really a difference between them?
eg, in terms of quality or performance?

No it doesn't make a difference, but if the component does not accept children, or if you aren't rendering any children under that component you should use the self-closing tag <Component /> to show that, and it helps keep your code cleaner.
