Reflections on IDEA vs VS Code

I'm the same way. Java/Kotlin in IDEA, front-end (js/ts/css) in VSCode, and Go can be either but usually VSCode. I don't really want/need more than what VSCode provides for it.

For Ruby, I'm lost without RubyMine--I work on a huge codebase and lean on the superfast search (with default "*.rb, !*test*" files) a lot, usually restricted to a project subfolder.

I'm really glad they renamed Gogland to GoLand--gland is weird (unless maybe I'm doing Monads in Haskell or something).

I work on a large rails codebase as well but within a docker container doing emulation because ARM. How does RubyMine perform then? Last time I tried it felt sluggish.

Do you mean the search itself or other parts? Quite possible that I've become accustomed to the parts that are slower being used to IDEA. e.g. I accept the 'indexing' operation sometimes on startup or the now rare garbage collection pauses.
