Need help picking an IDE/code editor as an arch linux user.

i swear to God, picking an IDE/code editor is doing my fucking head in, I've been spending the past 3-4 hours looking for a good option when i could have been doing literally anything else INCLUDING WRITING CODE. Vi/VIm/NeoVim are cool but dont have debuggers. Nano is simple but also doesn't have a debugger. Sublime is confusing (i literally cannot find any tutorials online for sublime on arch), VScode WAS my favorite until i switched to linux and now i dont wanna touch that stuff because the only good C++ debugger on there is made by microsoft (and I switched to linux to get AWAY from microsoft).

All i need is a code editor/IDE (idk the difference, im not an expert in programming but rather an expert in linux) that works out of the box, with a compiler, syntax highlighter, plugin support, and a debugger already in it, that has a GUI and looks "not shit" on the eyes

Any and all help is appreciated! (Also please excuse my language im not usually this pissed off)

Huge thanks to all of you! I'll try some of your recommendations in a bit

I forgot how to code after a long break from coding, what do I do?

Ive been learning python and GDscript for roughly 3-4 months, not the best but it’s somethin. I recently took a long break (roughly a month) from coding and I completely forgot how to code. I need advice on how to relearn coding (without taking 3 months). Like is there some sort of fast paced course or a course meant for somewhat experienced programmers to take every now and then to refresh foundations? Or like a cheatsheet? Any and all help is appreciated greatly ! :)

Thank you all so so much! Your replies have been more than helpful. I wish all of you good luck on your journeys!
