I replaced with kate when I realized notepad++ is being run by political activists.

I realize I am now using kate across macos, windows, linux and openbsd.

Open source and free software has always had a healthy dose of both politics and cringe. If the people volunteering their labor want to name a release after something they care deeply about -- politics, sci-fi characters, furries, whatever -- because that's what helps keep them motivated, then that's their right. And you have a right to fork or use other products if it's just too cringe for you to handle. Enjoy kate.

Wrong. Politics will fuck with you regardless.

Is it true that ignorance is bliss? It seems to have made you a little bitter.

Good for you. Is there a point to that?
