๐Ÿ’ป ISO a decent Python IDE again ๐Ÿ’ป

Before the important question...

  • often I use emacs (-nox)
  • sometimes vim or vi
  • blah on micro, neovim, ed, ee, etc

This isn't about terminal IDEs, rather it's about standard desktop IDEs running on Xorg, primarily for python, shell, ansible, sql

Eclipse + PyDev

  1. Ages ago, Eclipse with PyDev ... crashes often and I have no more patience

JetBrains PyCharm Pro
2) PyCharm Pro for a decade, JetBrains ruined it with the UI redesign and critical plugins no longer work when running "just use the old UI mode it's still fine"

Spyder well...
3) Have been messing with Spyder but it's rather limited (no markdown native? the plugin is unstable when it's even recognized). Verdic is still on the fence.

Something else, what have I missed in my search? I have no quals paying for a license on a truly good product, which used to be PyCharm Pro - but no longer.

OSS Note: I never use MSFT products for any reason, so fans of vscode should not bother.

#Zed maybe? https://zed.dev/

Haven't used it but keep hearing about it. I'd be surprised if you can't turn off the LLM integration.
