You may like them more for a variety of reasons but how is photoshop less free/open than Jetbrains products. Both are commericial products that require a licease and both are on the subscription model after selling unlimited liceases for years.

There are community versions of some of their IDEs, which are fully FLOSS, unlike Photoshop.
