VSCode & VSCodium are also free for commercial use.
Why learn an IDE you won't use anywhere else?
I am kind of using intellij ideas for everything. They are just so much better.
I don't think I would want to work for an employer that is too cheap for an IDE license
They're really not. As much as I hate commercial licensing for any dev tools, if you want to talk about superior there's nothing quite as good as Visual Studio (not code) on Windows.
It really depends on what kind of project you're working on. For .NET projects that might be true, but for other languages such as anything involving C++ then Visual Studio lags way behind CLion, which is multiplatform to boot.
