- lnxg33k1 3y agoI will try to replace my current intellij setup with it, in a way that is at least comfortable or without losing much productivity, if I can achieve that I will use it and donate them what I pay for the jetbrains license That is usually my approach, I always prefer open source, if I am using some closed source paid software when I am able to replace it, I donate the amount to the project I am actually in the market for a IDE, after jetbrains took the rust open source plugin and said fuck all
- Tao3300 3y agoThat's damn tall bar. If it were that polished they wouldn't need the money!

- lolinder 3y agoI'm actually really excited for the Rust IDE. The open source plugin was fine, but honestly pretty weak compared to their other IDEs, and a far cry from what a proper Rust IDE could look like. I'm hoping that with a sustainable funding model specifically for Rust they'll be able to give it more love. That said, I already pay for an all products pack, so splitting out the IDE doesn't impact me financially at all.
- lnxg33k1 3y agoI also pay for all products pack, I just thought that some people worked on that from the community and it would have helped the rust ecosystem as a whole to keep that open plugin
- pjmlp 3y agoYes, and in what concerns other FOSS projects another way is to buy books from relevant people on the respective project community.
