Emacs because it lets you configure everything exactly the way you want it. You can also go with Neovim, but it only runs in the terminal.
To me, that's a feature, not a detractor.
ETA: Not intending to imply that Emacs isn't also a fine choice. I just like the terminal.
I really like Neovim and I've been using it for over 2 years as my main IDE, but recently I started getting into Emacs. I like the Terminal as much as you do, but I just wanted to try out something new, so I went with Emacs. I've been using it for some time now, and I'm probably not going back, I'm very happy with it.
