ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I've tried Kate on a fresh setup of Win11, and same issue. Very slow at
launching the app itself, or opening a file. It's so irritating that sometimes
I wish I could find an alternative (but Kate is the most well thought-out text
editor out there, and I've tested SublimeText, Atom, and so on... Notepad++ is
great but its UI is aweful, not as refined and tasteful as Kate IMO)
