Not fully but I just don’t carry a pack anymore. Vaping is much better in my personal experience

Worked for a close friend of mine, he went from a pack a day to vaping, and was then able to lower the concentration of nicotine gradually over time. He still vapes, but no nicotine, and he never went back to cigarettes.
To stop smoking I will smoke something else. A better logic would be, I'll use something that can have a reduced nicotine content.
The logic is flawed here because vapor and smoke are completely different things. You wouldn't conflate the steam coming off a pot of boiling water with the charred remains of that frozen pizza you forgot about in the oven an hour ago would you?

I don't personally know one person who did. They just moved onto doing both
I quit some 20 years ago without using vape (did it exist back then? Not sure) or any medication. That day, after careful consideration I made up my mind and never looked back.
And not just because of my health (it was a very important factor) but also because I had realized how much money I was throwing away. Thousands each year.
I quit smoking cigarettes after moving to vape but vape isn't better for you so, it's just reading one for another.
