I switched to IntelliJ and use their vim bindings package, maybe 6 years ago now, exactly because of Java and other “IDE dependent” languages. I got really tired of switching between editors and IDEs and wanted “one to rule them all.” IntelliJ isn’t perfect but it’s pretty damn close to be honest. I admittedly use only a sliver of the features available in it but it also “just works.” And if when I switch languages, and use one heavily dependent on the IDE, I’m pretty much able to be productive immediately. Additionally, I have access to their language specific IDEs and can be off and running with them in a minute or two tops after some copy/pasta of settings (though I wish I didn’t have to do this step).

P.S. If you want to give IntelliJ a try, after installing the vim bindings package, also make sure to install the “string manipulation” package, and set some keybindings, as it’s 100% necessary for quick editing.
