From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The following gif demonstrates folding:
Others have given you many options, but I would like to know why Nvim or Emacs are not good options for you?
I remember something called lapce too

Thank you for mentioning Lapce!
I have been interested in Lapce for a long time. Unfortunately, IIUC, it doesn't support folding Markdown headings as shown in the gif. At least, I wasn't able to get it to work. Can you attest to this? Or am I doing something wrong? Your aid would be much appreciated!
SublimeText?
Looks cool. Thanks!
Uhmm..., did I understand correctly that it's not open source?
Not op but no it's not.
Thank you for the clarification!
While I didn't mention it explicitly in the post, I do intend to stick to open source.
Sublime Text is not open-source but it has a sane price and a WinRAR-style trial. I use it because it feels a lot snappier than other editors/IDEs I've tried when browsing large files.
On the one hand, it's a shame that it's not open-source, but on the other hand, developers have to make a living from something.

Snappiness is definitely something I appreciate. So, if it blows everything else out of the water in this respect, that I might have to concede. Thank you for mentioning this particular aspect of it!

I wholeheartedly agree. But, I prefer the capability to donate to the open-source software developers that I love to support.

Right indeed, not sure why it was implied that open source software couldn't be a financially viable option for developers too.
Textadept!.
Yet another one I've never heard of before. Thank you so much for mentioning it!
You might have a look at LEO:

I used it extensively for some time to write big documentation. It is good.
But I'd guess that for most tasks, Emacs org-mode is the most powerful option.
Interesting. First time reading about it*. Were it not for you, this might have been completely off the radar. So thank you for mentioning it!

Yeah, it has been slowly growing on me 😜. But I would like to explore all other options before I fully commit.

You’ve already discovered the best editor. There’s no need to explore more. ;)

Hehe 😜. Perhaps the purpose of this exploration is to cement the idea that I'm already on the best 😂. We'll see 😉.
Sublime.
Thank you! Unfortunately, I've come to the understanding it's not open source. So it's unlikely I'll go for it.
