    Same, I switched to helix about a year ago, and do all my coding (except for android because of they don’t make it easy to not use android studio).

    I was on vim for decades, but helix is finally the one that’s powerful enough to make me switch.

      You can also use Intellij Ultimate, the only big missing features are project config if you have mismatched versions of Gradle/AGP/Kotlin as well as the profiler.

        I tried it a few weeks ago and it actually has much less input lag and faster jumps than neovim did, which surprised me a lot.

        So now I’m running ideaj again because it’s actually faster than neovim once it’s started… It’s a strange world.

        I switched away from Jetbrains editors a few years ago because they felt slow and laggy but I’m impressed now. Also I enjoy using something else than my colleagues who are all on VS code.
