I switched from JetBrains to Cursor after multiple years, and it's nowhere near as bad as the comments here make it out to be.
For most of the rough edges, I've found workarounds at this point.
I miss some of the refactorings, but half the time the AI does them for me anyways.
Smart links in terminal are supported.
Detection of run configurations is supported.
My main issues atm are:
- Quick search is inferior. You can't search for folders, and symbol search is global, without the option to exclude certain locations (such as build artifacts) from indexing.
- cspell is more annoying than it is useful. I don't want to babysit my spellchecker. Without extensive configuration, there are far too many false positives.
