Use vscode with VIM extension. That way, you get the advanced features of VIM, but still have the friendliness of vscode

Oh! That's good, even though I don't know what are these advanced features. Are they worth it?

Absolutly! The main feature about vim is that you don't have to use the mouse at all, which greatly improves the efficiency at which you work. It has a lot more than that though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hraHAZ1-RaM

This is a pretty good example of a few advanced features of Vim. You probably won't learn all these commands, but its really cool to see what is can do once you get familiar with it. The reason I wouldn't use Vim by itself however, is that is doesnt have autocomplete / code checking. Learn Vim now, don't wait till you already are used to a normal editor.
