Couple I've come across recently and haven't seen here yet:

micro - a nano-style terminal text editor with modern features and plugins.

termscp - a terminal FTP (et al) client heavily inspired by WinSCP.

micro looks very impressive. I'm too invested in vi to move away from that, but it's great to see alternatives, especially those focused on being easy to use (like jed)

Only weird thing from the cap I saw was that you need to edit a json file to change keybindings - doesn't that go against the 'easy to use' edict, or is that something that's planned to be changed?

Same. If a newbie can't get stuck inside, is it even a text editor?
