Personally, I've been using VSCode with the Python and Vim extensions. I've used PyCharm as well and have no issues with it, but I've found VSCode to be significantly more customizable. I also like that VSCode works across a number of different languages instead of being exclusive to Python, so it works great as a general purpose editor. I'm not a huge fan of switching between different editors constantly, so I usually use Vim for plaintext and VSCode for anything programming related.
