      Kate, Geany and Micro are already pretty good.

      I’d argue that they’re even better than Notepad++. There’s certainly no shortage of editors on Linux…

        Kate is too bloated to fill the role of Notepad. Kwrite is lighter but like Kate all the shortcuts are different from Notepad and the Gnome Text Editor. Took me three attempts to get the shortcuts right, first because I didn’t save them correctly and second because I missed one of the way too many things you can configure.

        Kate and Kwrite make the OOTB experience with KDE bad for new users from anywhere else.

            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.

              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)

              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.

            It’s not bloated due to speed, but complexity. It has too many features to learn and things like session restore and multiple tabs means interacting with it requires more clicks or keyboard shortcuts. It’s not a good substitute for Notepad or GNOME Text Editor.

              Keyboard shortcuts? I don’t know any and use it effortlessly. Having session restore is a gift. If you don’t want stuff open, close. However, if you are regularly going to edit multiple files, having them reopen is far superior. Multiple tabs is far better than multiple windows and much easier to work with a mouse, rather than hover over program and select other window which is slow.

              If you prefer alternative good for you, but expecting a text editor to not support sessions in 2025 is bizarre. Do you consider DE’s bloat too?
