Also Nano

My go-to terminal text editor is micro. It's intuitive, has sensible controls (looking at you, ESC :qa!), and supports plugins for expanding functionality. It's the only terminal text editor I've used that does what I expect and I regularly use it instead of vscode. Nano is my backup and Vim is my enemy.
