The new Notepad is not fit-for-purpose. You cannot use it to open a file several gigabytes in size. It'll just die, take minutes, fill memory, and even if it opens successfully, it'll be unusably slow.
It's the Windows equivalent of 'vi'. It has to work, all of the time.
I hate this argument so much
It's like being perfectly fine with a universe with as much suffering as long as no one is dying. I am exaggerating of course, but why inflict this suffering to a BILLION people? I feel bad when I annoy someone for a few seconds (like struggling to open a door) and yet people are perfectly nonchalant to create ecosystem that billions of people use everyday for the next decade at least.
Are you sure?
---- "Larry started to explain about some of the places where he thought that he could improve things, but Steve wasn't interested. He continued, "You know, I've been thinking about it. How many people are going to be using the Macintosh? A million? No, more than that. In a few years, I bet five million people will be booting up their Macintoshes at least once a day."
"Well, let's say you can shave 10 seconds off of the boot time. Multiply that by five million users and thats 50 million seconds, every single day. Over a year, that's probably dozens of lifetimes. So if you make it boot ten seconds faster, you've saved a dozen lives. That's really worth it, don't you think?" --- https://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&stor...
