All popular IDEs (and most apps) seem stuck in a single-monitor paradigm. When are we going to get an IDE that sets the bar for working with multiple monitors? For inspiration, look at multi-monitor (mastodon.gamedev.place)

IMO, Jetbrain products are great. What else do you miss? Or are you just against them for no reason, like is common.

Personally i have never felt the need to use an IDE on multiple monitors.

If I wanted to it would be multiple windows with the code and I'm quite sure it's possible to just drag the code tab out so it becomes a window.

Edit: according to someone below Jetbrain IDEs work great with multiple monitors.

I used them at my company, because I was sold on their marketing. In the years that followed, we reported over 300 issues to Jetbrains, and had the opportunity to observe their abysmal software development. They told us numerous times to upgrade to preview releases that supposed to fix our reported issues, but then those contained new issues. When they finally had a stable RC, they managed to fuck up the final release by last-minute changes. This happened at least 3 times while we were their customers. I ragequit all ties with that fucked up company and never looked back
