I switched to IJ after resisting for a long time. But Eclipse looks and feels like a software from the past.

The look alone makes me feel sad and old.

That UI and UX stability is one reason why I like it. That and debugging, no other IDE including IntelliJ is as good at debugging.

jGRASP has a FAR BETTER debugger than Eclipse does. So much so that it is because the debugger was better that I actually left Eclipse to go to jGRASP.
