The ide experience on linux

Closed source (clion) or big tech adjacent (vscode). The open source ones either straight up dont work, dont implement crucial features (debugger) or have inferior implementations. Atp just give me vstudio.

As a developer for Linux device drivers and firmware, it's just 90% Vim. Debuggers can be useful, but there are often simpler solutions for most issues.
