There’s nothing saying you have to use one editor. My main editor is VSCode, but if I need to say edit a config variable on my server, or hot fix a script, knowing Vim is useful. Or I might use Rider for C#, etc. Vim (and emacs, nano and others) are usually always available on Linux servers, making it very quick to poke around, which makes them attractive to a lot of linux enthusiasts.
Choose the editor you find the best for the current job. If you prefer the full IDE experience, go for it. If you want a lighter editor, then use that. If you just want to learn the different terminal editors, there’s no fault in that, it can be fun to master something.
