lens.vim if you tend to switch between splits it takes care of the resizing stuff. Vim-diminactive is also cool, but I found some troubles with my current (and others) colorscheme, but some might find it helpful!
focus.nvim. A tiny lua plugin that auto-resizes neovim splits when cursor moves.

Cool! I currently use lens.vim but I'll give your plugin a try to see how it compares.
