Toujours or encore?

Bonjour, in the first example given,

J'habite à Paris depuis cinq ans, et ça me plaît toujours !

Translation: I've lived in Paris for five years, and I still love it!

Shouldn't it be "encore", since it means "still"?

This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing for + [duration] in French with either pendant/durant/depuis/pour (French Prepositions of Time)"

Usually toujours refers to an uninterrupted duration, whereas encore is preferred for interrupted durations.
