A Senior Developer working mostly with PHP and JavaScript, with a bit of Python thrown in for good measure, all on Linux. My tooling is simple, it's GitLab and JetBrains where possible.
For small projects, I will attach multiple to a single instance of whichever JetBrains IDE is relevant for the project. If it's larger projects, I'll have a couple instances of the IDE running, or will avoid context switching and complete a task, change projects, and work from there.
My work laptop is pretty fast (even if it's always at a minimum of 90% memory use - usually closer to 98%), so there's no real issue between closing and loading a new project for me.
