It's built from the ground up using QT. Since Notepad++ uses the Win32 API, there's really no easy way to add fixes to make it compile on Linux/Mac.

It's missing some features, but it's still nice to use on Linux.

It is not a clone of Notepad++ and does not have many features in Notepad++ such as sorting line or saving "without saving" open notes.

The second thing you say it has. It's still experimental -but is working for me-

Go to preferences check: Restore previous sessions, unsaved changes, temporary files

Ugly Notepad++ clone

It's cross platform, it's non-political, it has very similar interface. How is it ugly?

If you don't like it, don't use it, very simple

Be careful what you paste into a terminal. Check what a command installs before running it.

What is Notepad Next?

A cross-platform, reimplementation of Notepad++. Releases are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Though the application overall is stable and usable, it should not be considered safe for critically important work.
