Standalone, although since they changed the company they use for payments, I've connected to steam to buy stuff but don't use it

I was under the impression that if you were connected to steam you HAD to use steam to run the game. The standalone would be a different account if you tried to use it. That is why they have to manually merge the accounts if you unlink.

I have both installed. I only login on steam to buy mtx, then go back to standalone. You don't have to uninstall either. If you currently have just standalone, you can link it to a steam account via account settings on the poe website. If you only have steam, I believe you need to email them or post on the forums requesting to tie an email to your account for standalone. Regardless, you can have your account linked to steam and play either at any time.

Standalone feels more convenient.
I have steam on laptop and it always feels so clunky. It works but not well enough for me.
