people don't have a good answer for visual studio community edition when they talk about switching to linux. there are other ides that run on linux that potentially rival it in quality but i wouldn't know since i can't afford those. and the free alternative (vscode) is just flat out worse
say what you want about microsoft but if it weren't for their free offerings of visual studio i probably wouldn't even have a gamedev career
edit: non-commercial is incompatible with the whole "career" thing
unfortunately, i need to continue paying rent
and sometimes people will offer to pay for a year of rider or clion or whatever and i'll be like cool that goes to rent. why does it go to rent? because i have less money coming in than going out so rent is the priority
anyway if you wanna help me pay my rent kicking me some cash on kofi https://ko-fi.com/sharkhugseniko or signing up for my patreon https://www.patreon.com/sharkhugseniko is a lot more helpful than offering to buy a subscription to rider or clion, just sayin'
