minus-squareCoffeeAddict@artemis.camplinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoRight? I never quite understood who it was actually for, either. I mean, notepad makes sense, but wordpad just seemed like a worse version of MS Word. I guess it could have been for those who needed something more sophisticated than notepad but didn’t want to spend money to get Word? Idk, that’s the only reason I can think of right now lol.
