At my job a lot of people hate on Eclipse, but honestly I find it quite nice. I use IntelliJ for my private projects and think both are on par.

fellow eclipse die hard here ...

It's definitely a very complex beast but once you do master that complexity it is such a power tool. Even though I routinely do work in IntelliJ I miss various things enough from Eclipse that I always go back.

I just wish it had proper Kotlin support.

Base vs Base installations, Intellij is better. Ergonomically, I find Intellij better.

However, my experience with it has been that once you get every plugin you need loaded it becomes dog slow and even basic stuff like reference jumping becomes a slow, tedious slog compared to Eclipse.

Yeah, I used both Eclipse and Intellij and Eclipse is actually good IDE. Both have advantages and disadvantages, but I can not say that Intellij is better.

The most hate for Eclipse, in my job, comes from people who never used it. They basically dislike how it looks like and that it is not exactly same as Intellij.
