Thankfully my company has its own hosted LSP that supports Java (and every other language in our bazel monorepo) so I don’t have to mess around with Eclipse and JDTLS (what happened to eclim?). But at a prior company I just worked without an LSP and just did a lot of referencing Java docs in a browser and split screen files.
the thing i like the most about it is the amount of plugins you can add (including things like looking at nvim's paste ring).
I was also curious. The project has been shut down/archived this August recommending java LSP instead but it seems like there hasn't been a lot of work or a release since 2021

It has support for fzf and zoxide for these uses. As well as a panoply of other goodies (ripgrep, file previews, commands without exiting the file explorer, etc.)
If one is willing to learn helix instead of nvim, I know there's integrations out there between the two as well. I wouldn't be surprised if there were for nvim as well.
Since 2015, I mostly worked on the web version of our cross platform C++ project but have contributed substantially to the Android and iOS libraries as well.
Is it open source?
A real shame, I think Bazel's lack of good IDE options definitely hampers its adoption.
