The refactoring and debugging tools in IntelliJ IDEA are absolutely top-tier and have genuinely saved me hours of work. However, it can feel overwhelmingly heavy and slow to start up, especially on less powerful machines, and the sheer number of features and shortcuts makes the initial learning curve quite intimidating. I find myself constantly discovering new things, which is great, but it doesn't always feel intuitive to learn.
