Well, having tried both Eclipse and IntelliJ Ultimate, I can say that
* Eclipse has a crappy UI and can't handle Java9+ code very well, but can handle large code bases
* IntelliJ Ultimate has nice UI and assistance, but it totally fails with large code bases and still tricks you if you run code inside the IDE, especially when you want to use jigsaw modules and not classpath, as it uses by default
Unfortunately, using Java with other editors (vim, VS Codium, etc) is just difficult
