TextEdit is driving me nuts. Not only is there no way to make "paste without formatting" the default (and they call it "paste and match styles", which is just... WTF, your mindset is so utterly backwards from mine), but also they made the keyboard chord for it completely finger-breaking. Seriously, ⌥⇧⌘V? Try putting your fingers on all those keys at once. Especially compared to the ease of ⌘V!
Someone was just being an asshole.

I'm slow to upgrade #MacOS, preferring to stay about one rev behind to minimize churn, and avoid new bugs when updating my various tools & workflows.
The #MacOSVentura upgrade just before Xmas, was smooth except for the most basic tool: #Apple's #TextEdit app. It's been terrible!
I use it heavily for note-taking, 'cuz it's lightweight, handles text styles well and has always been solid.
TextEdit rev1.18 is fails on text styling, selecting and most importantly on text search…

My notes are #PlainText first, #Markdown second. They're highly portable between platforms, apps, and devices. #macos and #ios are my weapons of choice, but they'd look and work the same on #android and #Windows.
They aren't #Obsidian notes, or #Logseq / #iaWriter / #tangent / #TextEdit / #Nota / #AnyType / #Taio / #TaskPaper / #vsCode notes, though I can use any of those apps as a lens to view and work with them.
They're wild, and free. This is their theme song:
