Highly disapointed by @jetbrains who adopt an Opt-out model for data sharing.

I’m pretty sure one day a “bug” will re-enable the option, someone will forget to turn back the option because it’s a new setup.

Consent is to have the agreement a no become a yes. Not the opposite.

    Eclipse Theia isn’t classic Eclipse. It’s basically a remake (not a fork) of VS Code, designed to be backwards compatible with VSC extensions. They even have their own plugin registry at https://open-vsx.org/ to avoid Microsoft’s lock-in strategy that plagues forks like VSCodium.

    The only Jetbrains product I’ve used is CLion, and I didn’t like it because of how bloated it was. My PC fans would kick in every time I launched it, and none of the refactoring/auto-complete features were good enough to convince me to switch from Sublime Text + LSP plugin. At the same time, my work has forced me to become a build systems expert, so I have no problems having to set up everything myself. Project templates in Jetbrains IDEs may be a hard requirement for some, which I totally understand.
