I know you asked for Neovim users, but as an Emacs user, I'll respond:

> If you use Neovim, can you share why you chose it over VS Code

Who said you can't use both? Neovim is a text editor, and VS Code is an IDE. There is overlap, but they serve different purposes.

I use Emacs because it has a lot of capabilities that make little sense in an IDE. I don't think many people use VS Code for reading email, for example.

And I use VS Code when it's more convenient than Emacs (e.g. debugging).
