Agreed! I try to editor hop at least sort of regularly, and while I have settled into an IntelliJ groove of all things of late -- my preference when using any IDE is to disable as many of the tools it carries as I can.
I usually:
turn off all the git and version control tools I can find in the IDE at a minimum -- I allow it to note changes, ie "Hey this has been modified since a commit", but disable everything else git-related, ESPECIALLY keyboard shortcuts. Usually this doesn't affect whatever the built-in diff tool is, which I do like for conflicts.
turn off all the fancy IntelliSense stuff/autocomplete stuff that isn't "start enumerating the strings that start with what I've typed so far as I tab through them" -- anything that isn't purely triggerable ends up being WAY too distracting
I almost always prefer keeping my own running list of errors to a linter
