Hmm...
Having been a happy customer and user of JetBrains’ IntelliJ IDEA and WebStorm products for years now, I’m myself still rather ambivalent on this issue.
I appreciate them having spoken out against the war, but so far they haven’t taken any active measures that put their money where their mouth is.
Unless they do so, I’ll probably cancel my license once it’s up for renewal and resign to using (inferior) products by other vendors.

That’s what I meant by putting their money where their mouth is.
I don't do Java for backend anymore, thus no need for IntelliJ. OK, Android Studio is based on IntelliJ too, at least it's not paid product.
I'm thinking to purchase Goland license, but most of my Go coder fellows convince me that VSCode or nvim + a bunch of plugins is more than enough.
I don't know about the company's exact structure and where their profit ends up but given their rather small headquarters in Prague in contrast to their huge offices in Saint Petersburg, it's probably fair to say that a significant share of that money is invested - and taxed - in Russia.
