In my opinion, Jetbrains IDEA was a better tool ten years ago, before they decided to make versions for every language imaginable. In some ways they’ve improved and occasionally still delight, but in others their Java support is remarkably weak or non existant. Support for working with JNI is one that comes immediately to mind |

Having not worked there it's hard to tell if the team shifted to maintenance mode because the dreamers that started the whole thing left, or because the code is so work-hardened that only maintenance can be done on it. But it definitely feels like it's a product in maintenance mode.
I recall too, just before TeamCity launched, that there was a notable uptick in bugs and regressions. As if someone had been working on a new internal product that poached all of the R&D-compatible people and left things in the hand of more junior members.
