I am looking for a GUI text editor on Linux with a GUI which will allow me to connect to other machines via SSH and edit text files on these machines.
Is there such a thing or is there another way to do this with an encrypted connection?

Emacs is hands down my favorite editor but it’s more text than gui (definitely worth it to learn and use though). For remote files, you can just open them with c-x c-f (normal file opening shortcut) then
/ssh:user@host:/path/to/file
That functionality in emacs is known as TRAMP.

vim also does it https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/202918/how-do-i-remotely-edit-files-via-ssh
and it’s by far superior :PPPP
