I used Webstorm for years, but switched to VSCode.
It's just more flexible, which allows me to use new tech/langs very quickly.
If you don't focus on IDE features, you tend to implement quality of life improvements at a level that also works in an editor. Like in the language, framework, or library you're using (See the code generators point in the article).
With languages like Rust, that have zero cost abstractions, you don't even run into performance problems when doing so.

I'm sure you know, but Webstorm is limited by license/design. JetBrains sells editors to deal with almost every tech. I personally subscribe to the Toolbox for ~$200/yr and get all the IDEs. Some languages (like Rust) don't have a custom IDE, just a plugin into IntelliJ, the ur IDE from them.
