Is this true? I know developers that pay for IDEs, managed git, jira, and CI/CD services. Developers that use Postgres might pay for postico etc.

Popular tools are free. There are few exceptions, most notable one is Intellij Idea, but even Idea seems to be eclipsed by VScode lately.

I struggle to remember a single paid Java library I've used in the last 10 years. Everything is free.

There was commercial ecosystem around Delphi. Paid IDE, paid components. There's paid Lisp IDEs. But it's definitely not mainstream today.

IDEA has an open source edition.

(and of course, don’t forget about Visual Studio)
