Linux users: What plain text editor do you use and why is this your preference? I've tried Zettler, Obsidian, Kate (which I use often for CTRL-J), and Joplin (which does something funny with files, I forget what). I'm a low-brow user, Troglodite, Neanderthal, slow to pick up Joe, no coder, so there's that.
@zudn I love Gedit. Super simple by default, but as powerful as you need it to be.
It is built with GTK (GTK3, for the version I have anyhow), and seems to work perfectly without GNOME (👍👍).
@golemwire Will check it out, thanks.
