I switched from gas to induction during a kitchen remodel about 18 months ago. Took a couple of days to get used to, but it is considerably better than gas. Zero regrets. Faster, more precise, holds temperature better. E.g., I fry an egg on 6. Every time, I can reproduce my ideal fried egg (unless I break the yolk).
When I was shopping for appliances about half of the salespeople tried to talk me into gas, but a few loved induction and boosted my confidence to take the plunge.
Look at consumer reports ratings for induction cooktops, they universally score 98+ points. The best gas cooktops top out below the worst induction cooktops.
Commenting here as I don't think it's really worth a top level.
I feel it really depends on the person. For most Americans, induction is great. It's dead simple, repeatable, etc. But, I hate it!
I cook on cast iron. My wife cooks with a stir fry pan or wok. We went from gas to induction and both of us absolutely hated it. It's so hard to cook if you learned in a natural fire environment.
I hate having gas at all, I just wish there was a way to mimic its behavior.
I cook a lot on carbon steel and love it on induction. Seems to heat more evenly than on gas and heats up faster. Maybe you'd like it - seasons and performs the same as cast iron, but less material. Matfer Bourgeat is the brand I have.

No regrets.
