It’s called Paint now. Back in the old days it was called Paintbrush. It’s an anachronism.

FWIW MS has Paint 3D now and will probably have Paint 365 and Paint Series X before we know it.

Paint is still in the OS and hasn’t changed. Paint 3D is different

It was always called Paint. Paintbrush is the Mac equivalent

Hmm so back in Windows 3.1, Wikipedia said paintbrush was a Mac app from the early 90s.

MS renamed it for Windows 95, likely because of that and they were getting a lot of blowback for the interface in looking a lot like Mac anyway.
