Yes, but I start with the browser. What are the Notepad++ alternatives on Linux and MacOS, for those times when I have to use them?

vim :)

I love a feature of notepad++ where when you have documents open and exit, it won't bother you with a save dialog and when you open it again the previous state will be there. I found that mousepad on linux can do this.

For something functionality close I would look at Kate.

I love and hate it at the same time, just like my browser tabs hoarding, it means I currently have 218 open documents on Notepad++ (and 96 browser tabs). I might not even need them anymore, but it's always "I'll look at them... later".

Sublime maybe?

Sublime Text. I think it's better than Notepad++ and is available for all computer platforms, not just Windows.

Geany. Both npp and geany use the same editor component.

I don’t think licensed software is a valid alternative to freeware.

For the browser you can use something like Session Buddy. Save the session and move on secure in the knowledge that the tabs are there IF you need them.

A lite (without node) version of Zed could be it.

>>LostMy+(OP)
BBEdit (free version of course).

Thanks, I use https://www.visibotech.com/search/label/FreshStart but Session Buddy looks more polished.

>>LostMy+(OP)
At least in past I gave up and just used N++ with Wine. It didn't fit the rest of system at all, but was more usable for editing simple text files than DE defaults of GEdit and Kate.

>>LostMy+(OP)
These kind of editors are typically already installed. Pluma, Kate, Emacs, Vi... If anything there is still nano.

And of course “Ed is the standard text editor.”

VSCode in UI land, nano/vim in terminal.
