Comment on Ask HN: Is JetBrains Russian? Is it safe to use?parent

Comments

I think the opposite. I think that JetBrains has a level of quality that is almost impossible to find in the free alternatives.

name one Jb product for which you are not able to find an alternative

that's an easy one: webstorm

there are too many small features, like the local history which has saved me multiple times from blunders like running git clean forgetting that I hadn't yet committed the files

OTOH, since webstorm indexes the project, the refactors across multiple files are more reliable than for ex. vscode
