I use

• VM: Linux Mint

...

• IntelliJ IDEs /

...

• Neovide (a NeoVim frontend).
  

Usually Apt and Nix (link).

- Pretty standard. Very productive setup!

Anaconda / conda > pip

• conda has a package for Jupyter Lab (link)

conda install conda-forge::jupyterlab

https://jupyter.org/

PyCharm + GitHub Copilot

• PyCharm has good debugging options

...

Neovide (on Linux Mint via Nix)

• Doesn’t need all that configuration. Well suited to open for opening large files and jumping to jump to a specific line number (:1234)

marius@mleng:~$ which nix
/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin/nix
marius@mleng:~$ nix-shell -p neovide
...

Linux Mint is rather conservative, which is good. As stable as Debian. Nix builds separate environments for modern packages like Neovide etc.
