It really varies; I have used so many over the years I change it up just to not be bored & always trying new stuff, but I do have fall-backs...

In Windows it's Notepad++, VSCode (kind of new to me, 6 months or so), Vim in WSL in Hyper/Cmder terminals & AUTOHOTKEY to create work environments/flow. AutoHotkey is the main key here as it has sped up everything I do exponentially.

In Linux it's VSCode, Atom/Sublime, Vim in Tilda/Guake & AutoKey+Python+Shell for workflow.

I will only use specific IDEs for languages I'm not 100% fluent in until I'm more than familiar then I will go back to manual coding. I do occasionally use IDEs to beautify/format code.
