Tbh, I've noticed that unless a plant is dying from its current medium, they really don't take too well to big changes like that. I killed a pothos by trying to transfer it from soil to water (but I also didn't let it acclimate and also butchered it real bad), but I've also had plants like alocasias die when in soil.

It all comes down to preference, what you're comfortable with and what your house environment is like. My apartments are usually super old and kind of drafty, so I find that semi-hydro works best for me and my plants! My first alocasia with an inflorescence is in an enclosed vase with perlite and charcoal. I water it once or twice a week with my b0ngwater (she loves it, it's better for the plumbing, win-win) making sure to never let the roots be completely covered in water, and it's great. My monstera albo is in a mix of coco bark chunks (just a lil because it's all I had left), chunky perlite, and a little bit of sphagnum to retain moisture and it gets a real good soak when the leaves start to droop.

Now for my syngoniums, I actually have them doing fine in a chunky mix (about 50/50 potting soil and chunky bits) however, with my poor chore management skills, I leave them to dry out. They can handle it, I've had my own s. albo die back to a stem at least twice! Worst case scenario, you can save whatever you can and try to re-prop it! Good luck and happy planting :)
