Vim or Vi is the default text editor on almost all distros of linux. End of discussion. If you're working on a server that isn't yours it will have vim, you can't guarantee that it will have emacs or sometimes even nano, cuz you have to download those things. Learn vim, use vim, end of discussion.

Emacs, duh.

You should be familiar with Vim/Vi since it's universal, but it's just not very good. You would have to be crazy to prefer it to Emacs.

Emacs because it's the most powerful one there is, it can do anything the rest can do and more.

Nano is just slightly better than notepad. Only thing that makes it better is nano has syntax highlighting. Other than that, it's not worth using.
