minus-square@Stamets@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglish9•2 years agoI am one of those users. I use wordpad for prepping my DnD games. MS Office is beyond bloated and slows my pc to a crawl when it’s open. Same with Open Office and LibreOffice if I’m honest. Both hog too many resources. Guess I’m moving over to Obsidian full time.

Notepad++ is also pretty nice
But it doesn’t do what WordPad does.
Sounds like you need a new pc…
