I opened Notepad on my work computer today and saw a new button in the upper right...

I liked the addition of tabs but I worried it implied there would be more changes to the most perfect Windows application in existence. I was crushed to find out I was right.

Good news there. Linux is all Notepad.

Even if AutoCAD ran natively, I don't think the head office would like me installing Linux on their computer lol

I'm guessing the head office would not care for them using unapproved software either.

FreeCAD's UI is the CAD equivalent of masturbating with steel wool.

Ach. That’s a proverbial drag. Sorry.

Try Notepad3, it's a real text editor with a save button, tabs, line numbers and no AI, can replace MS Notepad completely. I think you need to remove the store app for that to work nowadays though.
