Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
I miss notepad++ so much. I miss musicbee so much.
Oh and I miss TagScanner so much too.
Notepadqq or Kate are supposed to be pretty good replacements!
Kate is okish. But all my reflexes and habits are on Notepad++ :(
There is also NotepadNext, which has active development compared to Notepadqq.
The one thing I can’t get set up on Kate is leaving temporary text files open between sessions.
Probably a bad habit of mine but I sometimes end up pasting some info into a notepad++ file without saving it and then come back much later to check it out again
I’m using Notepad++ on CachyOS.

I miss musicbee so much dude, tauon is great but it still isnt the same
Oh. I’ll check tauon, I didn’t know it. But yeah, when I first installed linux like 5 years ago, I looked for a Musicbee alternative for months. Still miss it.
Its pretty good if you are mainly looking for that simple itunes grid and left list style. It doesnt show the artwork of the current track and I wish it let you customize more than it does but its p damn good. Hope that dev is doing well lol.
