Yes, LED's do dim over time, but it depends on how hard you drive them and how well they are heatsinked.
Done correctly, it can be tens of thousands of hours. Done incorrectly, they could dim in minutes.
Strobe has no harmful effects whatsoever.

Crees are rated 50000 hours until 70% output. Luxeons are 100000, i think.
Maybe it just seemed dimmer after you got your M30

Typically no, but again it depends entirely on the characteristics of the light itself.
Just enjoy your lights and not worry about it. Most lights will be long outdated, forgotten, or destroyed long before you notice any dimming.

I have three of 4sevens light bars and several LED's are dimming and flickering , and 4 or 5 on each bar have burned out.
I was hoping that would not be the case , but ..........
That was an expensive BETA test
