I find using an editor such as Vim makes it easier for me to program across multiple languages. Most of the IDEs I've used (with the exception of some like IntelliJ which may be primarily for Java also has Scala functionalities as well) It seems cluttered to me to have an IDE for each language I use when I can use the command line and Vim and get the same done. Academia forces me to be multi-lingual when it comes to programming. I've used Python, C/++, Java, Scala as well as a few query languages. Using IntelliJ, MS. Visual Studio, and PyCharm seems to be a lot. Using vim (with plugins) makes transitioning a lot easier for me.
That all being said, if you're developing in only a few languages then I would see why an IDE would be useful. I wouldn't necessarily say you're doing something wrong. At this point it's more of a question of taste versus functionality I feel.
