@hilldweller One other thing about IDE2 is the expanded FIND function. In order to get the same function before I had to use another editor. This is a small improvement. Those icons are 'Match Case', 'Match Whole Word', 'Use Regular Expressions', and 'Include Ignored Files' the 3 dots toggle between the include/exclude and the results.
Also of course there is a built in debugger (based on GDB)
First computer 1959. Retired from my own computer company 2004.
Hardware - Expert in 1401, and 360, fairly knowledge in PC plus numerous MPU's and MCU's
Major Languages - Machine language, 360 Macro Assembler, Intel Assembler, PL/I and PL1, Pascal, Basic, C plus numerous job control and scripting languages.
My personal scorecard is now 1 PC hardware fix (circa 1982), 1 open source fix (at age 82), and 2 zero day bugs in a major OS.

Get thee behind me Satan. V1 is a thing of simplistic beauty.
@hilldweller They are 99% identical

Since the new version only supports 64bit x86, I'll have to continue using 1.8.x on my Raspberry Pi 3 based ClockworkPi DevTerm that I use while experimenting. Even if I'd upgrade it to a Raspberry Pi 4 core, there's no ARM release of version 2.x, yet, and it's not clear if there ever will be.
So, I currently use Arduino IDE 2.x on my Windows and Linux desktops, and 1.8.x on my mobile terminal. I didn't have any compatibility issues when switching from one to the other (I use git to synchronize my sources). All libraries and cores I have used until now worked fine.
