    Notepad by itself is pretty bare bones. It does have a “Search with Bing” selection in the Edit menu though, which I find odd.

    Thank God I switched to Linux. Windows 11 is a glimpse of what’s coming in Windows 12.

        A piece of advice - if you deal with industrial/business stuff at all, just go with Debian. There’s a reason why most fields use it in some form.

        i suggest you split your disk and try linux in the other partition way before w10 ends, because there’s still a bit of a learning curve and getting used to. for me it took a few tries, a few different distros. i went back to windows for a while a couple of times when i accidentally killed my penquin. btw disable fast startup from windows power button settings if you go this route, that’ll save you from a lot of head scratching. i ended up with mint because it seems to be the only distro that works perfectly with my buggy ass 3060ti.

          Yeah, an AMD GPU is pretty much required for that *chef’s kiss* seamless experience.

    Users can just use W10 LTSC IOT until 2032 and switch to Linux or ReactOS by then lol… This thing just isn’t worth using

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Microsoft hasn’t announced pricing for these credits yet, but one can assume the company will eventually start charging once you run out of them.

    Bing uses a similar system, but once you run out of “daily boosts,” the image creation through DALL-E simply slows down.

    Other Windows testers have even found references to a waitlist for the feature and a hero image that Microsoft may use to market its new Notepad Cowriter.

    The style of the image is identical to how Microsoft markets its Copilot features inside Office apps like Outlook, Word, and PowerPoint.

    Now, I’m old enough to remember a time when Notepad was but a mere simple Windows app that had barely been touched for more than three decades.

    I’d rather see Microsoft continue on its path of improving Notepad in meaningful ways, especially since it’s removing WordPad from Windows after nearly 30 years.
