I personally prefer mpv, but that's still FOSS. Nothing in the proprietary world is comparable to these two.
I used MPV for a while, seemed a little bare bones to me compared to VLC? Maybe that's just because I was more familiar with VLC and know how to do most things with it already.
I went from winamp to VLC and then tried probably everything and then went back to VLC
I had the same experience when I first tried mpv. Went back to VLC.
I tried mpv again years later due to some annoying bug in VLC, and finally made some efforts to customize the shortcuts to my liking (most were fine, just added a couple extra ones like k for pause) and installed some plugins (like mpv-sub-select and skip-intro). Now I can't be satisfied with anything else.
It's kinda like Neovim in that sense. Super customizable and integrates with everything.
