I always thought wordpad was underappreciated

That kinda blows. I won't pretend I was making heavy use of it when I used to use Windows or anything, but definitely I'd bust it open on occasion when I wanted something with mild enough rich text formatting, but felt LibreOffice Writer felt overkill for whatever I was doing.

Notepad++ doesn't have any form of formatting though, so it's like underkill for the few narrow things I'd use WordPad for

Bolding, italicizing, I think lists and headers I recall being a thing too

It does allow rich text formatting, it just isn't enabled by default. And anything it doesn't do by default once you enable those features, there is probably a plugin to add it.
