I just learned that new Macs don't come with Emacs preinstalled
EDIT: to partially answer my own question. I see that starting with macOS 10.15 (Catalina), Gnu Emacs was replaced with mg. Catalina was released in October 2019. I don't know anything about Mg but it seems like a neat project.

Is there an editor like emacs, vim, etc. but (solely) used in the BSD world?
mg (MicroGNUEmacs) despite the name is not affiliated with GNU and is a fork of MicroEmacs which is a clone of GNU Emacs. Basically it’s a lightweight, portable, emacs-style editor maintained by OpenBSD with a public domain license. https://github.com/troglobit/mg/

Is there an editor like emacs, vim, etc. but (solely) used in the BSD world?
