Every editor has its place but this meme would make more sense with any IDE (vscode, eclipse, intellij) than notepad

Nah, IDE's go in the top bar, big brain is still notepad and alikes.

Most people use IDE's, having them where notepad is would not make sense on a bell curve.

Along that line of thought, you could do

“text editor” (meaning Notepad, Nano, etc) on the left,
IDE in the center,
and “text editor” (meaning Vim, Emacs, VSCode, Sublime, etc.) on the right

That's exactly how I would've made it

Agreed.

I once worked on a team in a company who had to ssh into a server and do all the development work on that server. So all we could use was either vim or emacs. I had my vim decked out with all the plugins and customizations, and it was fine.

But after you get back to using an IDE (especially an IDE with a vim plugin), it's hard to go back

In my experience, once you've used any text editor with an LSP implementation it's hard to go back to an IDE
