This is a pretty open ended question. Alternatives include everything from vi/vim, ed, emacs, to pico (and probably some I have forgotten..)

  If you would read between lines (of a single line), I meant those ones that aren't vim or emacs related clones.

  Vim and emacs are huge, powerful texteditors that aren't competing with nano. Ed is...unusable in 2018. So just pico.

    (ed was unusable in 1988) :-)
