I personally love Vim because once you know how to work it, you can code extremely quickly. You don’t really even need any macros (though they can make you even faster) — I find the default commands to be fast enough that I consider vim to be an “expert interface” for text editing.
Also love the VS Code vim plug-in.

I use console vim frequently, but when I need to bump up to something more IDE-like (VSCode or a Jetbrains IDE), I can carry 99% of the vim functionality I use, and be up and running with a minute or two of config.
