I've used vim for more than 20 years, but lately I'm finding that now that `prettier` and `black` can just reformat code wholesale, I don't have to care as much about the precise tiny edits that vim is so good at. And when I'm not worried about those things, I start to notice that modern IDEs have much smarter syntax checking and whole-project search than I've ever seen in vim, even with plugins. So I think I'm moving on.

Yep, for me the peak right now is an IDE that has a great VIM plugin. You get the best part of vi (the insane productivity and wrist health increase that is modal editing) with all the best parts of a modern IDE.

I don't feel like I'm missing anything from a VIM-only setup in any way right now
