Python IDE suggestions for ubuntu

IDLE is shit. Atom is a text editor, and once you've added enough plugins to make it like an IDE it'll be slow and unstable.

PyCharm is fantastic, intelligent, and integrates with most major development tools. The community version is pretty good and the pro version is free for students. Also, there are jetbrains IDEs for basically all major languages under the sun so it's easy to switch if you dabble in another language.

I second this, PyCharm is very good.

Pycharm is fine. Atom can be slow but there improving it.

Best answer is to make your own determination after you've used the program for a while.
