Picture of text written in Notepad: STOP UPDATING NOTEPAD. TEXT WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN UNORDERED LISTS. YEARS OF DEFAULT APP yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND FOR BASIC FORMATTING OPTIONS. Wanted to format anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: it was called "WORDPAD". "Yes please give me LINKS in my file. Please give me HEADERS." - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged. LOOK at what Microsoft has been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the programming language & technology we built for them (This is REAL Notepad, made by REAL Microsoft): ??????? ?????? ???????? "Hello I would like TABLES in a future update" They have played us for absolute fools

I hated wordpad. New notepad is so much better than the old. An undo on old notepad would undo the last 1-7 sentences randomly, and wouldn't redo. Remembering notes is also good, and I love markdown.
I don't use the ai and it never was in the way of what I needed, so whatever.

    The last time I used notepad the undo option worked both as undo and redo, since it only kept the latest change and undoing was also a change that could be undone.

    I sometimes put together long bash commands to pull docker image updates. I would take five minutes building up a command, make a typo, pressed undo by muscle memory and most of what I typed out would be gone with no way to undo.
    This was no one time occurrence, because I'm too lazy to pull up vscode or something else, it would be a weekly occurrence.
    I cried when that old piece of junk updated to the new notepad. Never had that issue since.
