editor recommendations?

[inhahe]

My editor of choice is Komodo IDE, which used to be commercialware but is
free now. I'm pretty sure it has dark modes, but I haven't used them. I
just thought I'd mention it because it's a good, solid IDE but I never see
anybody mention it, e.g. in lists of Python editors and such..
