i need more time /me1zqAhhdmĬhildren of the future will never know the joy of spending hours doing this on Microsoft Paint #MSpaint pic.twitter. Seriously #microsoftpaint you can't get rid of paint i've been trying to workout how to use it for 20 years. Many Twitter users were shook by the MS Paint news, with its nostalgia still holding a firm grip. It’s one of the last vestiges from Microsoft’s early era and has evolved to work with its Surface Pen as well as its original mouse-driven functionality. Paint was prized for its easy-to-use design and has caught on as a low-end meme maker for the social media age. Internet Explorer - Microsoft’s much maligned browser - suffered a similar fate, being pushed behind new browser Edge on Windows 10. Microsoft had already started to ease Paint out the door earlier this year with the release of 3D Paint, which also gives users the ability to add 3D graphics to their creations. With the release of the Windows 10 Creators Update this fall, MS Paint could be pushed further into oblivion by the Seattle-based tech giant or erased altogether. The iconic computer application, launched in 1985 along with the first version of Windows, was designated by Microsoft on Monday as a “ depreciated” program - one that “might be removed from future releases.”

Microsoft Paint is on its deathbed, and it’s now appropriate to start planning the funeral.
