I was a happy Gedit user for many years, but switched to the new GNOME Text Editor a couple years ago and haven't looked back. It's perfect for quickly reading text files and writing simple markdown notes. Anything else and I fire up Vim or VSCodium. Still, I'm glad to see it getting some love and I'm sure there are plenty of diehard fans.

gedit now has a much more complete support of light and dark themes, and switching between them from the desktop setting.

The following plugins have been removed:

External Tools
Git
Quick Open
Snippets
