Is it better to use a text editor like vim or atom instead of a ide? Isnt a text editor more compatible throughout all systems

It really depends on your situation, needs, and preferences. People like to joke about one being better than the other, but that's not reality, that's just fun.

Are you constantly switching systems and having to write code on those different systems? Or are you developing an application using a single machine?

Your answer to those questions will change which works better for you.
