For minor changes on text files, I just use vim... but meanwhile my favorite editor is Sublime Text 3.
I've found a video tutorial online, called Perfect Workflow with Sublime Text, and that showed my how awesome Sublime Text is.
Meanwhile Atom.io might be also quite similar, or even Microsoft's Visual Code... but I still stick with Sublime Text, as I payed the license fee (imho it's totally worth it) and got so used to it, that I don't want to have any other editor again.
It lacks some features big IDEs have, but I can get along with that.

QtCreator for larger C++ code
Given, I have to pay 25 bucks a month, but these tools are totally worth it.
One question. Is there a way to highlight the code for python3 syntax instead of python2?
But seriously, it's MIT licensed and actually pretty good.
JetBrains Rider is my choice for C#.
sometimes using Qt-creator (mainly when doing stuff for android)....
for simple single file "projects" vim or mousepad.
