    For all intents and purposes it was free word

    I haven’t really used word in over half a decade since TeX beats it in every conceivable way.

    Wordpad was useful in the sparse few cases where I was forced to open a .doc or .docx and couldn’t be arsed to upload the file to Google docs

    I guess it will be missed for that
