Too me it looks a reasonable.
>brought to you by the originator of one of the most narcissitic platforms of the modern era, and hosted on that very platform, naturally.

if anyone from jetbrains here, in India it is showing prices using hindi (devanagari) numerals which are no longer in common use, even when text is in Hindi, most people will not even understand it. Would recommend to regular numerals.
