No, but JetBrains offers many different IDE's that you can use. I use C# a lot (it feels better than a lot of other languages imo) and I decided to get a license to use Rider. Most of their IDE's are not free, but some are like IntelliJ Community and PyCharm Community (you might not have known that Android Studio is just Androidify IntelliJ because it is open-source, Google forked it to make Android Studio.) I do have VSCodium installed (telemetry-free VS Code) for basic text editor stuff, and Vim around when I cannot get a UI or I need to sudo edit a file. But I prefer using an IDE when it comes down to it because it does a lot more than what VS Code can do imo.
Gitea is fully open-source (and if you don't want to self-host it, there's codeberg
VSCodium is the same thing as VSCode, just recompiled to remove Microsoft telemetry. https://github.com/cdr/code-server is also a really cool idea if you want to develop on a remote server, but in my experience it doesn’t support all VSCode extensions by default, so you may need a few workarounds to get it working for you. Also I may be biased but I’ve gotten really used to running linux as my only OS and I don’t see myself going back any time soon
