If anyone would be kind I would be interested in:

  • How do I add additional dictionaries to KATE? For some reason, it only has Hungarian despite my Linux installation being in English.
  • Any usable search engine left out there?

    It’s paid and US-based, but Kagi has been serving me very well!

      +1 for kagi, personally. Ive been using them for nearly 3 years and have never had a single complaint, and i literally complain about everything. Well…their maps requiring webgl is annoying…but at the same time its not loaded with nonsensical markers to the point of being unreadable.

    Kate is a very common name. maybe it’s being disregarded. I don’t believe those are sponsored results.

    DuckDuckGo slightly alters your search results based on your reginon and so I couldn’t reproduce this. Try advanced syntax with queries like +kate spellchecker or even "kate" spellchecker. Failing that, add terms you don’t want to see (-ai, -"quillbot").

    Which distro are you using and how did you install kate ? Usually to add dictionaries you just have to install hunspell packages

    seems usable to me

    I use Kagi and it’s usually better than ddg and google, but in this case not much. TBF your query kinda sucks tho. By searching “kate spellchecker add dictionary”, I found this.

    What’s your distro? Have you tried searching on your package manager? That’s where dictionaries usually are.
