I used to use Eclipse and switched to IntelliJ about years back. There is a bit of a learning curve with the switch, but it was well worth it. There is a paid version of Eclipse called MyEclipse I here is good.

Most of the other prority IDEs look and feel like Eclipse.

Does NetBeans still exist?

Netbeans still exists. It was my first in college. Great IDE but it has not aged well.

It was my first too, but Oracle is where software goes to die except for gov't work
