Note: I don’t care if the issues listed can be fixed - it’s still like selling a nonworking car then getting the users to go to the shady cyberpunk district to get the fixes. It’s like selling a dangerous power adapter and then go, hey, you can get an expert to go in there and do some soldering to the bridge rectifier and bulk cap trace widths, fix up the spark gaps so it complies with the most basic of safety regulations, and it will work as well as the competitor’s, so aren’t they practically the same? “Duurp, well at least you CAAAN get inside and solder-” Hey, what if a power supply just worked and was well featured? After like 40 years of development. Ever thought about that?
I think it depends on what you’re trying to do (with the versions of notepad I’ve used). It’s great for just putting a bunch of text in a file. If you want to do literally anything else, it sucks, but it serves its purpose well.
I’d rather use vim for the most part, but if I have to take notes in Windows, notepad was my go-to.
