Its not even wordpad. It only supports markdown not rtf... it only exists so they could easily shove copilot into it.

I get the saltiness about Copilot but this is getting ridiculous.

It got dark mode, sessions, tabs, and a Markdown viewer. How are these bad changes? How do these "only exist so they could easily shove Copilot into" them?

(btw, you can disable Copilot from Notepad with three clicks)

True, but IMO it makes a lot more sense to support markdown under Wordpad than Notepad since the controls and doc-style layout/rendering support is already there.

it only exists so they could easily shove copilot into it.
