I would prefer to use vim, but most plugins are limited to neovim these days. I also feel the overall speed of neovim is better and less janky when interacting with buffers and navigating files.
The treesitter highlighting in neovim is also better/supports more files out of the box than vim. In vim I was far too used to syntax highlighting being broke halfway through a file for one reason or another (lines too long, syntax new or broken, etc).
I dislike setting up neovim, but I also dislike vim's heavy use of language specific plugins. In a perfect world I'd have lsp+treesitter in vim out of the box and no need to install any plugins.
