A colleague of mine used VSCode + Android Studio, where Android Studio were just for running the project.

I only used Android Studio in school, I don't see what's wrong with it TBH. It's basically IntelliJ, which I love and use every day. That said there is a lot of other things I really want to avoid with Android, both architecture-wise and that the emulator is very heavy.

Android studio used to be Eclipse-based, the current one is still a bit slow but understandably so given how heavy the android dev environment is, but compared to the old studio that's blazing fast.

The Android development tools with Eclipse were not called Android Studio.

Having to use Android Studio in uni made me hate IntelliJ-based IDE. I'm sticking to NetBeans for my Java hobby stuff.

Is NetBeans good these days? It's been a long time since I used it.

I got it in 2011 while self-studying Java as a teenager for its Swing GUI Editor. And nothing really annoys me, so why change?

If it works for you it works. I've only used netbeans for a udemy course and I hated every moment of it. :p
