https://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/ - this is an actively developed cross-platform plugin-based IDE derived from their IntelliJ IDEA product that runs on macOS, a number of linux distrubtions and on Windows. The people at JetBrains are pretty responsive to their user community. It's possible to try out their IDE for 30 days, after that you have to buy a license from them. Has excellent support for Ruby and for Rails just to mention a few. It's possible to add functionality by installing from a large collection of plugins.

Editors with support for programming languages and frameworks

Sublime Text

http://www.sublimetext.com/ - really a super fast cross-platform package-based editor. Runs on macOS, a number of linux distrubtions and on Windows. Their package system is based on Python. Sublime Text is able to support a large number of languages and dialects.

Atom

http://atom.io/ - Open-source JavaScript package-based cross-platform editor that is easily hackable to adjust it to your taste. Comes with a package manager.

Emacs

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ - Everything including the kitchensink.

Vim

https://vim.sourceforge.io - Open-source improved vi.
