    It depends on what you want to achieve.

    Vi and it’s descendants are brilliant editors for a programmer but not for writing prose. So stay away from them. ;-)

    Do you want just to write text without being distracted by an overwhelming gui or are you fine with the hint at options?

    Do you want to write in a terminal?

    How much do you want to format while typing? By typing the format commands into the text or by clicking on buttons or ctrl-key magic?

    Do you need version control?

    For each of your combination of answers there are different solutions.
