Python development without PyCharm (or IntelliJ) and the IdeaVim plugin is unbearable. List usages is a game changer. Don't care much for anything else.
Whaaat? I program Python with plain vim. C or Java, on the other hand, with a large enough codebase, is unbearable without an IDE.
Depends on how large your Python projects are. If you have a million lines of Python code, navigating quickly and directed is invaluable.
I used plain vim before for Python projects, but these never grew above 50k lines of code.
Yup. Emacs, here, but same thing. Never used PyCharm or any other Python-capable IDE, and I've been coding large python projects for the same company for almost a decade.
Yeah, well, that's just Python for you. List usages is now an LSP feature for most languages, so will work with "lesser" editors too.
All that being said, I use Intellij with Java daily, so I can see where you're coming from. But for example Rust or Go works wonderfully with Neovim (or VSCode).
