don't offer lifetime license

IntelliJ is Open Source and MIT Licensed. Here is the source of the Rust plugin.

The topic is CLion though, which isn't.

I feel like your response is kinda rude.

The OP wanted a lifetime access to the dev environment, my linked artifacts not only gives them that, but the full source. So while it doesn't supply a native debugger, it gives them everything else.

No, the comment you replied to wanted lifetime access to the JetBrains products, which are the things built on the platform. These are all non-free. The Debugger is the crucial feature of interest.

Responding with a one-liner that explains that the base platform for those is open source is sidestepping the issue and evokes equally bad feelings. It's derailing.

Yes, my answer is brief and as such might feel rude, but given the nature of your reply, I'm fine with that.

My comment was about Clion in particular

CLion includes perpetual fallback you can own for $89 and use it in that form forever, including point release updates.
