 So don’t use any of them. You have a choice.

I've tried a big bunch of file managers on Windows and Linux.  I keep coming back to Windows File Explorer.
X File Explorer on Linux looks like it might be worth a try.

As long as I'm forced into a substandard programming editor, not a
chance (Geany is decent, but Notepad++ is the best)

 Pity you can’t just do “apt get install «editor-of-choice»”.

My editor of choice on Windows is Notepad++.  It has a ton of features I don't use, but a subset I won't go without: block commenting and uncommenting, several line sort operations, show symbols, function list, tab sizing, syntax highlighting, column mode, search across folders/multiple documents.
I once spent most of a day writing code only on MousePad on Linux, so I can adapt to a lesser editor.  But why should anyone have to lower their standards just to use Linux?

As long as there's no office software as good as MS Office, not a
chance.

 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Here's my MS Access 2003 app:  https://imgur.com/a/PBpe6Al
It was built against a few tables from SR28.  It has one tab control with 2 pages, 7 listboxes, 2 option groups, one textbox, and small amounts of VBA code.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it (you won't), is to replicate that simple app functionality in LibreOffice.
