I personally much prefer vim due to its infinite portability (I can use the same editor pretty much anywhere), but it came with a big up-front learning curve that I used when I was ramping up on a new codebase anyways. If you like VSCode and feel productive in it, you should stick with it. If you're in a situation where you're able to go slower and ramp up with vim, I think that would be a good time to try it out. The end-game is that your vim-config is truly portable, and no matter where you go, you'll be able to easily duplicate your work environment. Also, once you master the motions, you'll be much faster navigating bigger code-bases and can easily work on a server if need be.
