Vim After 15 Years
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

Vim After 15 Years

I actually have in normal mode ,ss for save session and ,so for opening them. Central location of session dirs and that's it. Save session saves everything from files open, positions, tabs, you name it.

Which, in your opinion, is the best session management plugin?
I'm looking to switch from vim-session to a Lua based session management plugin (i.e. :mksession wrapper). In awesome-neovim it looks like there are a couple of alternatives. I have relatively simple needs: I want a command for manually creating a new session, and automatic saving of an opened sesion when I quit Neovim. Bonus points for a built-in Telescope session picker, but I can always use (telescope_sessions_picker.nvim) otherwise. Do you guys have any advice?

Can you isolate buffers to a specific tab?
You can use sessions to switch between different projects. They store your tabs, buffers, etc. Check out :help mksession. I personally use vim-session which is a wrapper around mksession which allows you to use it more lazily.

How to handle working with multiple directories?
Check out :help :mksession. There's also a great plugin called vim-session that is a wrapper around :mksession making it easier to use, that adds commands like :SaveSession and :OpenSession that you can tab-complete to choose between all your saved sessions.

TIL - what is your most recent vim discovery?
I started seriously using sessions a couple of months ago and it's awesome. Although the built in :mksession works I like to use vim-session which is a wrapper for :mksession that adds stuff like auto saving sessions on exit etc which I love.
What are some alternatives?
vim-startify - :link: The fancy start screen for Vim.
telescope-project.nvim
telescope_sessions_picker.nvim
possession.nvim - Flexible session management for Neovim.
vim-tabs - Vim plugin which helps you to use tabs correctly and productively
sessions.nvim - a simple session manager plugin
auto-session - A small automated session manager for Neovim
