IntelliJ is great for organizational settings. I would never use it for home use as there are many good free alternatives for that kind of setting.
Most Adobe tools don’t have any good free alternatives even for home use.
So jetbrains is “acceptable” because I don’t need to open my own wallet.
Another upside of Jetbrains over Adobe is that you can get edu-licenses that allow you to use every software of theirs.
The best deal our university could get from Adobe was 25% off on Photoshop if at least 200 students bought it.
They also offer their software for free for open source projects.
Yeah, they are super pro FOSS. TBH no one makes a better IDE than them for professional settings. I wish Adobe did things the way they do them.
