I regret nothing. Say what you want.

Edit: I just saw the two typos. If you find them, you’re welcome to keep them.

      Huh, I did not know that any didn’t. I just tried a bunch, and here is a quick breakdown of what was preinstalled on each:

      Distro Kate KWrite
      Bazzite true true
      Fedora false true
      KDE Neon true false
      Kubuntu true false
      Manjaro true true
      openSUSE true false
      SteamOS true true

        Well, I can throw in another for free:

        distro Kate kwrite
        openSUSE true false

        But yeah, interesting list. These days, KWrite is basically just Kate with different configuration, if I understand correctly, so it always feels like you might as well go with Kate. In my opinion, KWrite is also not particularly easier to use, since basic editing works the same, but I guess, that can be disagreed on.

        I do like that Kate is pre-installed. Imagine Windows, but rather than notepad.exe, you get Notepad++ out of the box. Now imagine that to also be a whole lot better and then that’s what it feels like to have Kate on fresh installations.
        You can just start coding something right away, without it being necessary to install a different editor.
