#FreeSoftwareAdvent day 8: Geany
Geany is my text editor of choice. I have it configured to display the main text window in the middle, with sidebars on both sides.
The left sidebar usually displays "Symbols". If I'm in a Markdown document, headings will be displayed here. If I'm in code, functions and the like will be displayed.
The right sidebar generally displays "Tasks", which shows me anywhere I've got something like FIXME or TODO in the current file. If I'm editing Markdown, I usually switch it to show me a preview of the file I'm editing.
For me, Geany is the Goldilocks of text editors. It has just enough features, not too few nor too many.
