Boy oh boy, was it ever a bad implementation. Whoooo nelly was (is) that.
I use PPAs in Linux and I stay clear of the AUR. Entire open source projects have added such things to Windows but Microslop still rejects doing it properly themselves. Torches and pitchforks for Redmond one day!
Winget is the equivalent to AUR
Wait Winget is a user repository- as-in it’s completely unpoliced? Hahah I stand corrected
According to MS there are various validation steps when app is added to repository, including virus checks:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/package/repository#validation-process
So I guess it’s safer to install apps trough winget, at least as much as much You trust Microslop doing good job.
In my case that’s not at all, but I learned something today, thanks
why work on a feature that your users categorically reject? this isn’t me projecting, i literally have this conversation with a buddy all the time. he’s a programmer and talks about all the problems with Windows like there aren’t options. use the OS the way the devs designed it, pick a different one, or stfu
Kind of a bad take. “Windows fits my use case best. But it would be even better if the package management was improved.” “Stfu, pick a different OS”
