I think I've tried most java ides and they all suffer from the same issue which is that they're slow, unwieldy, and the benifit they bring (apart from debugging) are mostly not benifit at all. Learning how to write correct code without and IDE auto fixing everything you get wrong with a right click has been very valuable to me. Learning my build tool outside of crappy IDE integration has been an education too. Basically getting rid of my IDE has made me a MUCH better developer although I admit they do powerful and useful things.
