Besides Libre Office, what other programs/solutions exist in the Linux world for writers?

(Please, don’t suggest VIM. After all the memes and comments I’ve read, I’ve come to dread it).

I like writing but the standard Writer tends to send me in a constant formatting spree.

I want to get back to writing regularly and something that could help me stay focused and somewhat organized would be nice.

    I know you said don’t suggest Vim, but I use Neovim for my writing and write in markdown. Any markdown editor will do. Marker is fine. It’s really easy to convert to another format like HTML or EPUB with pandoc. Markdown has minimal formatting, too, so it shouldn’t bug you so much.

    FocusWriter is another good suggestion if that’s more what you’re interested in.
