Rust Rover is out of preview and is free for non-commercial use. The only caveat is:

It’s also important to note that if you’re using a non-commercial license, you cannot opt out of the collection of anonymous usage statistics.

PyCharm and IntelliJ Community don’t have commercial restrictions. I’m still pretty anti-RustRover given this and the whole bait-and-switch where they turned the open source Rust plugin into what is now a closed source, paid editor. JetBrains still had done nothing to ameliorate this.

You can still use the plugin

Which one? The deprecated one without updates? Or the paid one that’s basically RustRover?

[–] [email protected] -4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The one that is no longer developed, obviously

[–] thesmokingman 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It wasn’t obvious because I’m not quite sure why someone would suggest using software that both needs regular updates and will never get any more updates because those updates along with good faith open source contributions have been moved behind a paywall.

I'm glad we could clarify it then
