> - IDE support is an issue still

I thought it was about the parallel ATA. And I tought "who uses that still?!" but is about IDEs for programming...

sorry about the topic deviation, but I laughed hard.

Does everyone really just use vim? This one surprised me as a problem.

Vim with ale is pretty great in any language with a language server that I've tried.

You only need an IDE if you’re dealing with lots of symbols and a complicated module system (Java, .Net). That’s when you need a code indexing tool. For a lot of language, a text editor is enough.

You are not the only one.
