I'm a big fan of Intelli-J, but VS Code is eating their lunch with AI agent plugins. I'm assuming it's because it's much easier to create them on that platform.
The same pluginm from the same team, on Intelli-J always works much slower, feels clunkier and is prone to crashing.
It's a shame
EDIT: I'm especially pissed at Microsoft for not improving VS's rendering speed. They are all about making its backend services async, spinned out to external processes to be able to use the latest dotnet version, while the main IDE process is stuck in NET 48 seemingly forever, with zero improvements made to rendering performance. Perhaps the Vello Sharp news I'm hearing recently will kick MS into gears (one can hope).
