Everything that's wrong with Java in a single class

Did you read what I said? "vim/emacs are [for Java] no better". This was in part to head off the predictable chimes from some of "all IDEs are stupid, (vim|emacs) is the best thing since sliced bread".

My tool of choice for Java is however IntelliJ, which is simply light years ahead of Eclipse (IMHO).

I agree.

Eclipse seems to always become unstable once enough plugins are installed. After a few updates and removals it ends up tipping over regularly. I suspect the underlying OSGi plugin system is a tricky thing to get right.

Intellij IDEA seems to "just work".

That said, I prefer coding in Clojure with Aquamacs but I've yet to get Clojure into a production system.

I m using IntelliJ at home but at work we use yoxos.

Yoxos allows the creation of eclipse profile that make it easier to have stable eclipse.

If you have a lot of eclipse users, I think yoxos is the way to go.

But I still use IntelliJ at home :)

NB: I m talking about this yoxos: https://yoxos.eclipsesource.com/

Yes, I read it and still think it's laughable that anyone would mention them in the same sentence...
