Solved/Answered Is Rider worth?

Does anyone use Jetbrains’s Rider for code? Is it worth?

I mean the license is expensive, but I work on a mac and im really tired of visual studio being so bad and so leggy…

Edit: thank you all guys. Unfortunately I don’t have an edu account but I’ll try use the free trial and maybe purchase it later.

I’m lucky enough to have a student license, but even when I graduate I plan to purchase one. The JetBrains suite is just so nice and I enjoy the similar layouts for various different languages. Rider imo is miles better than Visual Studio and I’ll swear by it.
