The only thing that used to hold me back was Notepad+. Try using sites like Alternativeto.net to find and test the open source alternatives to what you use on windows first to see if they're good enough.

What functionality does notepad plus have that you can't find elsewhere??

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I did find it, thus the past tense. I used Notepad+ like I use a browser, with lots of tabs open and having the sessions carried over to the next run of the application. Let alone the line listings on the side and it being a pretty good xml & html editor. Besides it's open source so what's not to love 🤷‍♂️

I see. What alternative did you end up with?

Kate. It's honestly overkill for what I do, and Xed(Mint default) has come a long way.
