Why not both?
When the debate revolved around Emacs vs. Vim, I used Spacemacs. It seem we moved on from that?
Is it now about VScode vs. (Neo)Vim?
Guess that means Vim won the Emacs vs. Vim debate then, when it got into the next round.

Vim and VScode are my favorite code editors but I admit that Vim is better :]
Knowing how to actually navigate vim is worth learning. Especially if you work in embedded systems where a lot of the time you're on setup that is running barebones and likely just has vi as a text editor.
But I used VSCode for dev work with the VIM plugin.
The best thing about Vim is that despite having all the features of a modern IDE it starts in 0.1s and you can start editing right away while the code data is loading asynchronously.
The worst thing about Vim is that... just kidding, there's nothing bad about it.
Vscode I'm always like all right let's code... Ah shit, the "what's new" window has popped up again in the middle of my typing...

There also IDEs that start instantly.
They don't ship a whole browser though.
Itβs a trade off for sure. I think the area editors like Vim totally win in is when you need to ssh into a server and edit something. I think it will always exist because of this use case
Is it bad that vscode is my favorite ssh client

0.1s is way too long, you need to optimize your startup time. /s
