Reminder about UNDO, which Google has removed without warning or
explanation
Reminder: Control-Z (^Z) is UNDO! In their continuing push to force AI
down users' throats, Google has removed the standard "Undo" option from
the top of many text input right-click context menus as displayed by the
Chrome browser, replacing it with a useless "Help me write" function
(protip: Do your writing yourself!).
Whether or not you still currently see Undo in various situations
likely depends on your browser version, but clearly the replacing of
Undo with "Help me write" is well under way.
Google's removal of the widely used and pretty much universally
forever undo function is already causing problems for users who have
been using it for many years and are unfamiliar with the associated
shortcut. This really is a slap in the face to nontechie users in
particular who tend to rely on context menus and not shortcuts.
So yeah, you can use keyboard Control-Z to UNDO, but if you don't
already know that, you're screwed, because Google removed Undo from
the menus without any warning or explanation. How Google has fallen.
