Students at Indian schools get books that teach them about Krita.

The book on the publishers' website:

1. This is not NCERT, so most probably just a few schools using it.
2. Good to see Krita instead of Adobe stuff, though, at the same time, the same are giving MS Office (most probably due to higher industry demand- they are Pvt.)
3. Still a long shot from what I had: Flash and MS Access in HS.

Enterprise Linux on desktop?

Anyone using enterprise Linux on their desktop such as RHEL, Alma, Rocky, CentOS etc.?

I'm curious if it's easy to use for this purpose or if the older packages are a pain.

RHEL at work.

Not having Kate or Okular is a pain.
Need to download cmake for certain cases.
Subscription Manager is a pain.

Air gap means I can’t make do with snaps.

I would also gripe about not having KDE, but that would be unfair and off topic in this case.

For which cases did you need cake for example?

Since you asked, I don’t usually need cake, since I don’t do parties, but I might occasionally buy a piece and eat it.

Hasn’t Kate been replaced by an upgraded Kwrite or is Kate still maintained?

kate and kwrite are both maintained and usable side by side on the same system.
In terms of features… kwrite : kate :: notepad : notepad++. Kinda… kwrite is still much more featurefull than notepad.
They have KDE Frameworks dependencies, which makes it non-trivial to install on RHEL when you can only access the local base and EPEL repo.
