I just tried. I was very … skeptic about a QT app running on the Mac. But yeah, it works quite fine. Minor things like not signing the bundle (that’s on Apple, but you can totally do it with a free dev cert) which you can easily bypass, and some fonts looking small on retina displays (which it’s like, all the recent macs)… it’s pretty rad. And I trust KDE waaaaaaaaaay more than … Zed, VSCode & friends.
Kate exists on MacOS? Seems like a no-brainer. I discovered it with KDE, of course, and it’s great.
Yep, I use it on my Mac. I also use Konsole instead of Terminal. I wish Dolphin was available, but sadly it’s not.
Yeah, you can also run it on Windows. It has replaced all text editors for me on any system.
It has a mac build but last I checked only nightly build were available for mac.

regarding the tiny font thing… maybe you can set QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR env variable or something similar in qt’s config file?
I don’t want to lead you wrong, but I believe Kate has been ported to both Mac and Windows.
