Heal tool selection plugin
Coming from Windows and Notepad++, I love Kate!
I used both Notepad and Notepad++ on Windows, then changed to Linux Mint and used the GNOME text editor which was the perfect middle-ground. Then I changed to KDE and I got hit with the abomination that is Kate.
I am not sure why you dislike Kate, but that’s why we have choices. I personally am a Kate user. I used Notepad and Notepad++ when I was on windows. I looked around for a notepad++ alternative and tried Notepadqq butt stuck with Kate ultimately because it was standard on an KDE machine.
What do you not like about Kate? It’s very simple and minimal on the outside but has lots of cool features if you need them. (Just like KDE Plasma)
