It should be noted that you can still use Notepad without a Microsoft account

Despite the ability to still use the software without an account

Are we not doing context anymore?

What is this? Just outrage for the sake of outrage?

Don't take this the wrong way, but it's hard for me to contain my incredulity: have you been asleep for the last decade? Has a very obvious pattern of enshitification not been constantly proven as a rule on the tech sector? And an article is... outrage?
