that's how it worked in the last couple distros i tried but now on kubuntu it shows all kinds of (unhelpful) words. i tried disabling "keyword completion" but it did not change this behavior.

thanks for reading!

edit:
here is what it says under “components” in the “about” section:
Kate: 25.08.1
KDE Frameworks: 6.17.0
Qt: Using 6.9.2 and built against 6.9.2
Ubuntu 25.10 (Wayland)
Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64
Kernel: linux 6.17.0-14-generic

edit2: i tried upgrading kate to the latest (beta?) version 25.12.2 but now it's not even launching...

for me it says "Version 25.08.1" in the "about" section of kate, what does it say for you? maybe this is something i could fix with downgrading the installed version of kate?
