How the hell is this not the Onion?

I like to ask people for their opinions

Going to take this opportunity to ask if anyone knows about a good alternative?

Yes, but them not calling it out in the article makes me thing this is not the case here. If it would be done locally, it would not be as bad. But I somehow doubt it would be.

Article doesn’t state this but I assume this is done via Copilot, so anything you use it on goes direct to Microsoft cloud, right?

Seems like incorrect link, links to the picture

I’ve had F-Droid since it’s inception and got no clue why others don’t use it

I’ll tell you - average user just doesn’t know about it. And doesn’t know the benefits.

I use Mint and I support this message.

Thanks!

What would be a good EU alternative?

That’s my understanding, yes

The age of Notepad having a paywall has arrived, with the simple writing software now prompting users to sign into a Microsoft account to access new tools such as Rewrite, a new feature that uses artificial intelligence to rewrite highlighted text.

It should be noted that you can still use Notepad without a Microsoft account, and users can go as far as removing the Rewrite icon completely from Notepad.
