Dude, I miss the days of using Notepad++ in windows.
I mean, Kate is better, but it does not have that same I'm using it in highschool feeling that Notepad++ does.
As someone who switched from npp to Kate in the past year and change, I think npp is way better out of the box. Kate is like a multitool that you need to tweak a lot.
I actually just used it this weekend! On my airgapped Win XP machine. College vibes, very nostalgic.
