I went from VSCode back to vim via Neovim and it works great. I am setup for go and lua. I took a base config called kickstart and removed things I didn't need. Then I added things I do need. As for the community, the channel on Matrix is one of my favorite communities. Whenever I needed help, it came instantly and with precisely what I need. (They must be getting the same things a lot). They never suggested I use a big plugin to solve a little problem as far as I can remember.

All in all it looks like we had a wildly different experience. I suspect the real issue is that I like to work with vim a million times than I did with vscode. You might me biased the other way. I feel better on the command line and it's amazing how much people have figured out already to make things run well and look nice.
