Must be nice to still have that choice. At the company I work for they've just announced they're cancelling all subscriptions to JetBrains, Visual Studio, Windsurf, etc. and forcing every engineer to use Claude Code as a cost-saving measure. We've been told we should be writing prompts for Claude instead of working in IDEs now.

I didn't renew Jet Brains this month. Been a loyal customer and would have quit jobs from 2008 onwards without it.

Isn't Visual Studio a one time purchase?
