I land both three point and on the mains as the situation and the aircraft may demand. On aircraft with a very low tail and no steering outside of brakes, wheel landings are often preferred, transitioning down to a locked tail.

Is one better than the other? Seems to be a chicken and egg concept...it all depends what you're doing, what you're doing it in, and the conditions under which you're doing it.

I think being proficient in both methods of landing is important, regardless of what you use.
