re: Jetbrains: I didn't mind splitting IDEs too much since you can choose to purchase a la carte if you don't need every development environment. I simply use Rider (C#/Unreal) and it came out cheaper than the one monolith that was IntelliJ some 5+ years ago.

re:VSCode: did you have any problems with ~~Atom~~ or Sublime Text? I love VSCode, but those tend to be the competitors that come up when talking about it. They lack the trillion dollar corportation attached to them so you may like them.

EDIT: oh it turns out Zed was made from the creators of Atom. I guess this is in good hands, in that case.

EDIT2: Darn, mac only for now. I guess I just have to wait. Also, I had no idea how much drama happened in the years since I last used Atom. I guess that recommendation is a no-go.

I use SublimeText since 2012 and paid for all 3 major versions of it, and it has good tools for Rust, but lacks interactive debugger. VS Code's debugger is very inconvenient, but at least it exists. Had to switch to VS Code for Rust.
