IntelliJ is unfortunately very sluggish for me either way, and as of now, if it is open, I cannot do anything else on the PC, which means it is only open when I am actively coding, but even then, it is just so slow that I would rather not.
On the other hand, VSCodium and vim / emacs are always open, at the same time. But I do not like coding in Java / Kotlin without IntelliJ, which I do for some work.
Honestly, a better PC would solve this issue.
