Any alternatives to WordPad?

Hi yes I look for alternate to WordPad.

Its good for taking notes of many things like users, lolcows, and general notetaking as well as embedding.

Sadly it is no longer on any computers that I use.

I do not want to use Word cause that costs money and is too big. I will not be using LibreOffice because that is lame and gay.

Take a look at Joplin ( joplinapp.org ) and Obsidian ( Obsidian.md )

Both are cross-platform and both support extensions and markdown.

Both are cross-platform and both support extensions and markdown.

I have tried both and I have noticed that they are note taking software with the focus of being markdown. I want something that is a rich text editor that displays embedded files. I can do cool stuff like opening those files in a separate software and editing them there. I guess I am asking for an upgrade to the software I already have.

I am looking to embed other text files, spreadsheets, images, videos, html files (hard maybe). With all of these files edited in my other software that I specialize in.
I like Obsidian's linking to other files however they are saved in Markdown, something I despise for its limits. Thanks for recommending these software though, I had fun testing them.
