They're quiet and you don't have to rush. And they're decentralized. You get to choose who stores your data. If you're on WeChat, Line, or whatever IM apps you're using, you're forced to stay there because that's where all your contacts are. Emails are portable. Save your mails as `.eml` files and store anywhere. Keep your address, if you own your domain name, and migrate to wherever you want, preferably someplace you trust, and people can still mail you with the same address. I was using Tencent Exmail for a long time. It's an evil service provided by an evil big corporate if you don't know, as evil as Google. It's hard to get a custom domain email address in China. People rely on emails less and there are fewer options. Some people use Cloudflare or similar services to create an alias for their email, but that's still your data in a BigCo's data center. What you get is merely a cool address. diff --git a/content/en/posts/java-dev-with-true-idea.md b/content/en/posts/java-dev-with-true-idea.md index 44fba2a8..1d24dd36 100644 --- a/content/en/posts/java-dev-with-true-idea.md +++ b/content/en/posts/java-dev-with-true-idea.md @@ -1,10 +1,9 @@ ---- -title: Java Development with True IDEA -date: 2025-10-20T16:16:00 -draft: false -toc: true ---- - ++++ +title = "Java Development with True IDEA" +date = 2025-10-20 16:16:00 +draft = false +toc = true ++++ Let's be totally honest. **IntelliJ IDEA is bloated, slow, and buggy.** It's not the worst tool but certainly doesn't provide a comfortable dev experience, especially when it's so damn expensive.

Clear commit messages help collaborators understand the changes you've made, and how those changes can affect them. But... What if you're doing something solo? For instance, you're working on a side project that you know is going to be small, and you don't expect anyone to help you expand it.
