I have tried to run Notepad++ on Wine but as soon as I use the compare Plugin it crashes.I'm looking for a lightweight text editor I can open in little time. I already use Atom and Eclipse but I use those for my javascript and Java projects, respectively, and with all the plugins I have installed it's kinda heavy.I heard there's a way to integrate Kompare with Kate but I can't seem to find a step by step instructions to do this.Geany has a diff plugin but apparently it works only for files under version control.Notepadqq which has most (if not all) the features of Notepad++ but it's lacking on the plugins side and doesn't have a diff plugin yet.

Now I am using a Linux machine and I can't seem to find something similar. I'm used to Notepad++ on windows and its diff plugin. I'm looking for a GUI text editor with an integrated diff feature.
