We don't care. We use Notepad++ instead. I don't know when I last saw Notepad and I don't miss it.
Notepad++ is great but there is absolutely value in having decent built in tools. You can't always install third party apps everywhere you need a simple application to write or edit some text.
You're right, fortunately most distros ship with nano nowadays, as my vim isn't great (and my emacs skills are nonexistent)
