I also recently migrated from nvim to VSCode (First with vim plugin, now with vscode-neovim plugin).
Maybe I'm in the wrong side, but I always tried to replicate the IDE experience on nvim, and it was a frustrating experience because there was also something else missing, at the end I had to manage 30+ Plugins that could break at any time.
Even though the vim experience inside VSCode is far from perfect (really lacking when we compare with IdeaVim for example), it's a breath of fresh air being able to manage my plugins/lsp/etc with a single click.
The only thing that I miss daily is something like Telescope/fzf. VSCode fuzzy search works fine for file names inside the open project, but searching for file content/other projects/previous open files is really bad.
Recently tried to develop something similar on vscode just for fun (Even I don't use it tho, just accepted the limitation): https://github.com/jpcrs/Binocular
