What is the easiest and most accessible editor?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

It's also a bit of a misnomer to think of Emacs as just a text editor. For 
example, it can be used as a file manager, a development environment, a personal 
organizer and more.

I think that's one of the main problems I had with it. It tries to do far too 
much, and puts everything into an editor style environment. I found it to be a 
nightmare, especially the strings of key combinations that can't be translated 
to some kind of mnemonic in most cases.
