main file explorer plugin replacement?
vin-dirvish fits your requirements.
-
Which file explorer do you use?
I use vim-dirvish(you probably want to pair this with vim-enunch), it's a more minimal version of Netrw.
Oh neat! I use dirvish, but I'll have to check out oil.
-
Managing your files. How do you do it?
There is the built-in file browser, netrw, but I switched from that to vim-dirvish to lir.nvim to oil.nvim. These are file browsers, not file trees, and my preference for them is probably because I became accustomed to netrw after using it for so long.

vim-vinegar
-
I use the default file browser in vim (netrw). I know there are plugins that a lot of people like. Should I switch?
I just recently got into the "plugin frenzy", and since I was already using netrw, I ignored all the tree-style options and just installed the tpope's vim-vinegar to extend it.
-
Best way to manipulate files inside neovim?
Netrw + vim-vinegar works for me. In conjunction with harpoon and a bufferline and maybe vim-eunuch, it works out pretty well
-
main file explorer plugin replacement?
I think you might be looking for netrw (:Ex brings it up). It is the default file explorer and can be used in many cool ways. There are extensions for it, like (vim-vinegar, and :help netrw is your friend :)
-
What plugins do you use to manage work across multiple files?
Plain `netrw` with a few options changed and tpope's vim-vinegar for easy access
-
Which file explorer do you use?
I use Vinegar but should try Oil. https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar
-
Nvim-tree or ??
Hijacking netrw to prevent disruptive "project drawer" style plugins as mentioned in the vim-vinegar readme is important to me.
I use vim-vinegar - tried using other plugins with a drawbar style navigator but always find netrw + vinegar the most intuitive to use :)

Neovim config from scratch (Part I)
ThePrimeagen suggests pv as the mapping to see the folder, but - comes from me being used to https://github.com/tpope/vim-vinegar some time ago. Choose your's to your liking.

Using neovim without a file tree plugin
Netrw, vim’s built in file explorer is pretty solid if you’re looking to understand the topology of a project. I really like the pattern of browsing the file tree in the window pane where the file will open. vim vinegar is a great plugin for refining the netrw experience and making it a little more seamless. Takes a minute to learn the keybindings, but I find it much lighter and less intrusive than nerd tree or it’s offshoots.
