Reminder that this is the company that decided to replace Paint with something called "Paint 3D", the laggiest and bloatiest "literally nobody wanted this" drawing app I've ever seen.

It was never replaced. Paint 3D was an entirely different app for 3D art only. It's also been gone for a few years now.

I think that crown belongs to the pile of pig shit that was the Windows 10 photo viewer. My first experience with that trash fire was opening a simple 2k photo which took 15 seconds and 150 MB of memory on a six core i5 with 16GB RAM. Viewing images was pain and suffering until I gave up and re-enabled the Win 7 viewer which was thankfully still included.

Ugh, I can no longer press win key and type "p a i enter". I now have to find the old paint manually.

Must be some Mandela effect but I'm sure that Paint.net was supposed to replace mspaint when it was started.

I remember how Skype, an awesome piece of software transformed into Lync, which worked fairly well, slowly transformed into whatever MS wanted to call it year after year, slower and more buggy than the year before.
