- johnyzee 2y agoI share your befuddlement. Eclipse is good and overall better than even paid proprietary IntelliJ. I think there is a lot of bandwagon jumping, especially with newish devs.
- fastasucan 2y agoI think the point of the comment was how Eclipse was perceived in the past, not how good it is today.

It gets in my way more often than it helps. It's *slow*. It's a resource hog. And its weird insistence on tying "projects" to "windows" bugs the shit out of me. Most of these are subjective, but hey, I tried it.
