I mainly code Java with IntelliJ.

  • it doesn't AFAIK have an integrated browser or if it does I have never encountered it ❌
  • I have not seen it crash a lot and certainly not for the stated reason ❌
  • if autocomplete isn't working, that is a sign something about the build process isn't set up right, so other things won't work either ❔
  • basic settings being buried deep in the menus is definitely a thing ✅
  • if it underlines something, that has always been an error, I think it calls a real Java compiler for this ❌
  • freezing at critical moments can occasionally be a thing ✅

Nah, there is:

  1. A special hotkey that allows you to find and execute virtually any command. Same in vscode with ctrl+shift+p.
  2. Text-based search in the settings dialog.

So even though things are buried somewhere deep, it's easy to find them.

Sounds like a ~~skill~~ hardware issue tbh.
