I do use vs code but it's not better than Intellij Idea. Don't know about vim but nothing out there can compete with Intellij Idea in my opinion. I can guarantee once you use IDEs by Jetbrains, it will be very hard to use anything else again. It's an IDE and capable of much more than any editor out there, especially for java projects.

I have not met a single soul who can argue that Intellij Idea is not good.

Sorry, I meant VS code and Vim are better options for Ubuntu in terms of stability (not as IDE) because of their bigger community and support for Linux. With Linux you should always sacrifice something if you don't want to try other IDEs then you should change the Linux distribution.

I got your point. This has only happened recently and honestly for me ubuntu 19.10 was working like a dream and both 18.04 and 20.04 have some issues.
