Is there anything I can do about this other than wait for a few updates? I have realised that it takes a couple of releases for IntellIJ to catch up with latest android Gradle plugin releases, I know I can just use Android Studio, but sometimes I prefer to just use intellij because it's a bit lighter on memory compared to Android Studio

The reason to use intellij is irrelevant, it is what you want to use and it should just work. It's a very arbitrary limitation enforced by the plugin that needs to be removed.

Agreed, the plugin should just warn and not load instead of preventing the entire project from loading

You could try the eap

@hfhbd I am on the latest EAP but it's the same.

There’s a way to circumvent the check, without guarantees that the IDE will work. It’s quite hidden and enables a bunch of dev features, but at least lets the project sync: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-358608/IJ-2024.2.1-not-compatible-with-AGP-8.6.0#focus=Comments-27-11083844.0-0 (and the next comment)
