Emacs. But honestly, I have no idea what I am doing.
I'd call that an IDE, but also one that makes using a non-IDE editor superfluous.
As the old (bad) joke goes: Emacs is a great operating system. Shame it lacks a good editor.
The biggest irony is it's often told by vim fanboys, who apparently don't realize a very comprehensive emulator of vim it is one of the editors Emacs offers. But mostly it seems to be told by people who don't even know what Emacs is, they just know they're meant to disapprove of it.
Frankly, I've seen it more often from Emacs users themselves, including while I used it myself for ~20+ years.
