I have never heard of "joe". I have heard of many other text editors
though. Off the top of my head:

vi
vim
neovim
vis
ed
emacs
acme
gedit
pluma
xed
geany
leafpad
kate
nano (gross)
vscode
atom
sublime text
notepad++
Windows Notepad

Maybe if I even know Windows and macOS and *plan9* text editors before I
know of this "joe", it needs to do better advertising. What are its
features? Why would I want to use it? What merit does it have that we
should recommend people use it?

I have run pacman -Si joe, and it seems to be an editor. It's
self-described as "Joe's own editor". So let me revise my question: who
is joe, why do I care who he is, and what does his personal editor do
for me? For that matter, if it carefully described as his own editor, am
I allowed to use it? Alternatively, is it designed to be used by other
people than its original intendee?
