In micro, your settings are stored in ~/.config/micro/settings.json

Research direction
Start by tracing how micro loads the user settings file at ~/.config/micro/settings.json. Determine where a global file such as /etc/micro/settings.json would fit in that loading process, then verify that global settings apply for every user while user settings still work as documented.
