    IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition & IntelliJ Platform

  • Actually, Microsoft's Python LSP for VS Code is proprietary[1] (as are some of their other extensions) whereas PyCharm Community Edition is open source[2].

  • I previously used IntelliJ IDEA on Linux for over eight years, so I can sympathize with your struggles. [1] Recently I started using OSX because my Thinkpad finally died and I could not find another laptop I liked. So far, it's been pretty bumpy, although I have noticed that some things have improved such as fonts and build times. The downside is that very few things currently work on aarch64 right now, so I somewhat regret making the switch this early. I recently started writing some Haskell, which was a pain to setup on my local machine but now that GHCi and Stack support it [2], I think it's getting stable. Hopefully native libraries will improve their support, because despite the minor speedups (faster JVM), overall it's been a productivity-killer. Very, very few native libraries offer aarch64 builds right now.
