can say that my vapes feel way way way less harmful than cigarettes.

This might not have any connection to the actually safety though, it could be the tobacco smoke is harsher on the lungs so you feel it but the vape could contain more heavy metals that your lungs/throat don't detect.

But I think you're right, from what I've heard the higher quality vapes don't have the issue with leaching metals from the heating element.

That's true. Still, I feel just fine after all these years, and my lung capacity is way better than it used to be when I smoked cigs. That's not to say that it's perfectly safe, absolutely nobody should ever start vaping unless it's for harm reduction.
