Microsoft is killing WordPad in Windows after 28 years - Lemmy.world

Honestly, what is the point of Wordpad when you have Notepad and Word?
@jeffw @dantheclamman Wordpad is better for coding
How do people use Wordpad for coding? I’ve never seen that done. If I ever open code in an editor with a “bold” button, I screwed up and close without saving.
He must be thinking of notepad. Which I mean, I would not choose to code in Notepad but I wouldn’t actively avoid it like I would wordpad.
It's the "I got to change 1 of code" editor.
The "my IDE didn't recognize the file type and opened it in here by default" editor.
