Most of their IDEs you can use for free for non-commercial purposes and even if you need to buy them; when you compare software development to any other profession our tools are incredibly cheap. You can get all the Jetbrains IDEs for less than 300€. Compare that to a HDL simulator or a 3D CAD application like Autodesk. These easily cost several thousand euros each year.
You guys use editors? Real programmers only need a mechanical hard drive, a magnetized needle and a steady hand.
Yes, I’d rather have 35 different IDEs for every task I need to do. Much better than One To Rule Them All.
I also don’t have any ties to a specific editor. I use whichever is most convenient at the moment. But I avoid paid IDEs.
