If you need an "off the shelf, low effort" IDE then you pick whether you are using VSCode or Vim/Emacs and then go to youtube and google "best plugins for ${LANGUAGE} in ${EDITOR}". And you get basically a minute of copy pasting to have it set up to about the same level of optimization.
Aside from that? The reality is that everything takes time to learn. It took you time to learn your preferred emacs config. It took me time to learn default vim and then what my preferred vim config should be and how to take advantage of it. Just like it took time to learn the editor that came with python on windows for years (still might?).
Which gets back to this being a boomer ass article.
