Are IDEs really like this ?
-
No, they are not a flat rectagle creature with arms and legs.
FlatIDEners think otherwise. You are just a conformist not willing to check the facts. IDE is flat! Booo!

Visual Studio has these issues daily.
Ten years ago VS was awesome. In the last 2 years, all they added is AI crap and every other feature got more buggy.

The fediverse is just so geeky. I don't know what this means. The wikipedia article kinda makes sense, but there's a lot of terminology in there. It seems like an advanced editor with many features - like a bat-mobile for programmers, but it keeps breaking down?
Basically yeah, it's a text editor with a lot of features geared towards making programing easier, e.g. an equivalent of a spell checker but for code. Like any software, some IDEs/features can be either poorly designed or unstable, which can be aggravating when you spend your day working with it.

Are IDEs the microsoft word of programming?

Unreal Engine certainly is.

No. Unless there's a bad update... Every few years.

I have not. Last time I used Eclipse (maybe 10 years ago) I got so frustrated it prompted me to learn Vim.
I’m currently mostly using IntelliJ these days.
The only issue I've ever had with Eclipse is updating it. It's only gotten better in the past 2 years or so. The rest of the time upgrading was a complete pain in the ass. Just about every time I ended up giving up and reinstalling from scratch.
Well, the one other thing that annoys me is not having decent themeing. I use a third party extension and while it does help, there are parts of the IDE that you still can't customize so if you want a dark mode you have to deal with parta that aren't ideal.

programmer vegeta is having a bad time

Intellij is sometimes like that, e.g. I hate not being able to change my gradle cache folder globally, instead of per project
Sometimes it stops showing the ui and just runs in the background
Sometimes it fails to git pull and the rollback menu is broken
Sometimes the hot reload bugs out and it recompiles 1000+ classes
But i still love it

Your experience is far from universal. Working with actual code files, visual studio works very good.
Mix in XAML blazor, however...
(Note that both file formats are abstractions from which C# classes are.generated...)

I have a faint memory of working with Eclipse but shelved it due to making Java even slower than my dog walking towards his shower. Is it still alive and viable?

Are you even a real programmer if you haven't fixed a prod critical but in notepad++ because your ide won't open for whatever reason?

One doesn't know how to code if they cannot spell the whole word.
(Turn off autocomplete for a day and test your actual knowledge.)

I once fixed an important bug by force-pushing on the master branch (I was an admin too and could do it). I had 5 minutes to fix it, and no one was aware of it. I didn't ask for permission but I was sweating a lot.

Actually Clion is prone to eating all your RAM randomly. It's Java after all.

Yes and no.
You can avoid all these problems by just coding in Word ofc, but then again all these problems will still happen

"clicks"? Where we're going we don't need... "clicks"!

Just use Vim!

I've done critical fixes (usually config) direct on a prod server with vim over ssh before now. Not the best way to do it but sometimes waiting for CI will just take too long...
