I'm looking for a new job due to undervaluation

My boss hired someone with less experience than me for a higher-paying job, and I felt undervalued

What I wish I knew
"Communicating job search intentions to managers doesn't guarantee a positive outcome"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't feel obligated to inform your boss about your job search, especially if you haven't interviewed for the position"

Clear regret.
The downsides outweighed what was gained.
