Please make a more reasonable and detailed critique.
Sincerely,
Someone who prefers Eclipse over IntelliJ (strongly, I cannot STAND IntelliJ), Textmate, Atom, Sublime Text 3, Vim, Emacs, and NetBeans.
(EDIT: davnicwil, your reply to me disappeared. Was it deleted? I appreciated the discussion and had written a reply.)
I haven't used Eclipse in a few versions, but when I made the switch I was extremely thankful that I did. What makes you prefer Eclipse? Or, rather, what makes you dislike IntelliJ?
and then
> I cannot STAND IntelliJ
with no reasonable or detailed critique.
> You're right in that a large degree of my preference owes itself to familiarity bordering on second nature – I gave IntelliJ another shot recently, and I didn't feel right adapting to it. Autocomplete was typically the very first keystroke I changed - to escape - so it was never frustrating to me. I'm also fond of an old plugin that generates class builders, which made creating immutable POJOs with autogenerated constructors/hash/equals/toString super fast and easy.
