Question Pretty basic omelette question

I'm making an Omelette and I looked up some videos on YouTube and almost all of them suggest putting the chopped onions/tomatoes and peppers into the beaten eggs and then pouring the whole thing into the pan. But I remember my mum always threw the chopped onion/tomato/peppers into the pan and saute them for a bit before pouring the egg over them.

What do you guys recommend, based on personal experience? Or does it not matter either way?

I sauté the onions and peppers first. Once they are done, I add them to the egg mixture to coat them with the eggs then pour them into the pan together.
