I believe Kate does that! It's a GUI and not a TUI though. Not sure if that was a requirement as well

    Thank you for mentioning Kate! The GNOME-fanboy inside of me would probs like to resist it, but sometimes KDE's offering is strictly better^[I absolutely adore Okular.] at least IMO*. I'll look into it and see if it satisfies my needs.

    That wasn't a requirement. Regardless, thank you for the heads up!

    I like it a lot when I don't need a full IDE or a terminal editor (which I use micro for).

    The folding in Kate isn't bound to a keyboard shortcut by default, but you can bind the katepart > Toggle current node in settings > configure keyboard shortcuts. It's also available via mouse on the left side.
