What happened to the IntelliJ Community Edition Free Tier?
It sounds like you downloaded the Ultimate version instead of the Community version. On the intelliJ download page you need to scroll down to the Community edition link, the one at the top of the page is the ultimate edition. More on reddit.com

About the Intellij Community Edition
i used to use community edition on Java projects and was very happy with it. here's what I like about ultimate: better when working with other languages - e.g. TypeScript it understands as well as WebStorm DB integration is very slick, I can get autocompletion in my SQL strings if you're Java or Kotlin only I think CE is fine.

r/javahelp on Reddit: Is there anything like a free version of IntelliJ?
December 6, 2023 -

As the title implies I am trying to code an app and am looking for something like IntelliJ to code it with unfortunately every single one that I find requires that I have a license to use it and I would like to find one that does not require me to pay up front. I am fine paying a percentage of the profit that I make from the app but I simply do not have enough money at the moment to pay a set amount so if you could tell me about something like this then I would massively appreciate it thank you in advance.(also if you could tell me the technical term for something like IntelliJ then that would also be greatly appreciated thank you).
