In my opinion, both has pros and cons, so I strongly suggest to CHOOSE WebSocket if you need a lightweight, standardized protocol and are comfortable handling the complexities of connection management and browser compatibility, and CHOOSE Socket.IO if you prefer an easier implementation with built-in features, automatic reconnection, and fallback support for broader compatibility across different environments.
