Access your JetBrains IDE remotely with Projector

I was a big fan of JetBrains IDE before, but (almost) completely switched to VSCode because of its very good support for remote machines and for its much better support for multi language projects. Combined with Tailscale to connect to my faster PC from anywhere, my laptop isn't taxed every time I compile and this helps on the battery.

It's a good step toward the remote experience I'm getting with VSCode, but it's far from being as fast and seamless yet. They seem to have gone the route of having a remote desktop like protocol, as opposed as VSCode more lightweight protocol. It's probably fine on a fast network, but I doubt it will be as good on spotty networks.

Is it worth trying out when good ol X11 forwarding works for me?
