This forum has no topics?! Okay! Solution!
What is your favourite Linux IDE and why?
Personally, I now prefer "Geany" simply because it is fast and lightweight and "just works" I used to love Eclipse but release after release it just felt heavier, slower and slower in the end I ditched it and went Geany. Honestly best decision I ever made!
What's your story?

I tried and really liked Brackets.io, sadly it's it doesn't support live edit via FTP which makes it rather useless for the way I develop. ( Fireftp on the dev server -> open in geany, save auto pushes the file )
For C++ development I've stuck to Code::Blocks, mostly I suspect because it reminds me of Dev-C++
I've tried both Anjuta and Eclipse, but they both seem to think that they should taker over the organization of my files which I really dislike.

Last I looked at it it was mac only - tried it again today, so far I am impressed.
All off the ftp plugins are crap, but it at least understands gvfs ( even if I need to use nemo/finder to mount first ) not perfect, but it has a good chance of becoming my new daily editor
Komodo Edit (Free version of KomodoIDE) is nice, but a little heavy for my needs.
