Default Coco husk vs. Bark chips

So ever since i have grown orchids, i have always stuck with a bark chip based media for the majority of my plants, and it works quite well, but I always notice how much the bark rots, and it can be a hassle when it comes time to repoting. I have been looking up coco nut husk chips and I have read that they don't decompose as much as bark chips, i would also imagine it would not be as dense as bark. Has anyone tried out coconut husk chips, and what are your preferences?
