Especially since you can’t even edit text directly in it. WinMerge is pretty much the only Windows app I miss now that I’m using MacOS full time.

That is false. You can edit directly in it, at minimum in 3 column view. I know because I do it regularly and have done for years.

It is not false. You can't just drop two text files onto Kaleidoscope and perform a diff with manual edits. I do know that Kaleidoscope can support editing under certain specific conditions, but those aren't relevant for me. WinMerge supports editing under any conditions.

That tweet is from 2013 and nothing has changed in the intervening nine years.
