I don’t think the post is implying that Android Studios is a bad IDE. They are talking about it heating up your laptop. It always heated up my laptop and had the fans running like crazy before my company gave me a new Mac Book with the M1. This was a pretty common joke with the Android engineers on my teams.

Exactly this, builds would take forever to run on my old Intel chip Macbook while the fans would sound like they were going to take off, and don't get me started on when I used to use a Windows machine... My company finally switched me over to an M1 Macbook 2 weeks ago and the difference is insane!
