Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad

• Armand1@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  The point is that I’ve seen several comments on other posts about this vulnerability, and in the body of this one, saying that Notepad is bloated and terrible now.

  I’m offering a counterpoint that this is not necessarily bloat. It’s debatable that this is the right tool to have this feature, but it can be a useful feature.

  I’m fine with Markdown support, but I wish MS got the message about Copilot being unwanted. Not sure if they’ve added it to Notepad or not at this stage, but given all the places they’ve crammed it into I wouldn’t be surprised.

    That’s called bloat.
