I use Vim together with cscope / ctags and some other plugin. I guess if you get used to their weird keyboard there are no more options. My IDE colleagues use CLion (quite paid).

I was recently looking to try some of them, and what I found didn't convince me at all. Either they didn't give me much, or they weren't very stable.

VSCode I've used very little on Windows, and I didn't dislike it at first. If one day I woke up wanting IDE, I'd probably give it a try.

Sublime seems to be very popular, but it's paid. Yes, even if few people pay for it. If you really like it, a one-off payment of $80 seems reasonable. What doesn't? Put it next to CLion's $180 a year...

For me I think what I do best is simply Sublime Text 3 which is the editor with the best graphical interface you will find, with a huge amount of plugins, you can do pretty much anything there from writing Latex, Python, C++, Markdown, etc. I must admit it's not easy to set it up for debugging, but for that I simply do it with lldb from the command line (which is a very useful skill if one day you need to check errors remotely).

Another editor that I like a lot but costs a lot is CLion, it makes some things easier (how to rename classes or types) but you should always get used to the paid stuff.
