Does converting NEF to JPG lose quality?

JPG is lossy, so some fine detail is discarded to make the file smaller. Raise the quality in Settings for a closer copy.

NEF or JPG: which should I use?

Use NEF for adjusting exposure and white balance with maximum latitude. Use JPG for photos you share, email, print or upload. Keep in mind the main drawback of JPG: no transparency, and every re-save loses a little more detail.

NEF is Nikon’s RAW format for its DSLR and Z-series mirrorless cameras. It stores the unprocessed sensor data for maximum editing latitude, so most apps can’t show it as a normal picture.
