Appreciation Post for KATE
(thelemmy.club)
I have been using KDE via Kubuntu for about 2 years now, other distros with Gnome before that. Based upon the name (KDE Advanced Text Editor, K.A.T.E.) I always thought of Kate as an alternative to Notepad++ or something like that. Like a highend note-taking app.
I recently started using Kate for managing my Docker-Compose yaml files on my homelab, using the Git functionality to sync to my repos and doing some web development. It's basically an alternative to VSCode or Codium.
Thanks to the devs who work on Kate . If you don't hear it enough we appreciate you!
Huh... And here I was, never even considering that somebody may have ported Kate to Windows. I should try it, for the rare instance I'm editing something on Windows!
KDE connect works too
tons of KDE software is on the windows store, from KDE themselves, even (i can't link the platform filter directly, just change the "all platforms" dropdown to "windows")
God damnit. I never knew Konsole was available on windows.
