    Ok so here's how you save a doc now... Go to file then save as then AI menu.... You don't save files now. Just remember what you typed!

    But here's how you change font size! Simply hit the large A to make it bigger like this A... I.... Actually the font size is totally fine! Don't try to change it..... Moving on....

    And this is how you add a page bre... Nah that's fine too.

    Type an O?! Yes! Hit the O key! Just write as much as you can with O. Let's try the N... Yes! That works great. Say you want to type No or On for example. You first press the shift button and then... Oh AI again. Just press the N or n and the the O or o. Whichever one....

    And that's my opinion of Microsoft products nO!

    Still using archive.is, why? They have been shown to edit pages after being archived. Completely unreliable and distasteful. And they abused their captcha page to facilitate a DDoS.

    I went to a site called remove Paywall .com or similar and it offered this. Since I had a free account at 404 Media, the soft Paywall didn't affect me in first place. Do tell about alternatives though.

    A little unfair to Microslop, I’m pretty sure all tech companies have that goal now.

    And then there is Facebook, who is sitting in the corner saying “amateurs”
