Nano, simply because, for complex code - I check this into GIT and use my IDE/VsCode locally.

Sometimes I need to make a quick change to a config, or a bash script, or something small - then all I need is to move between lines, search, search and replace, etc... - which nearly every editor has. VIM seems overly too much for this simple use case.
