Why don't more Windows developers distribute their apps through the Microsoft Store where apps can be auto-updated?
>>
>>101219629

because nobody uses the microsoft store

You can't get fitgirl distributions this way.

Wow that was difficult

It comes with every new consumer Windows device. There must be at least a few dozen million people using it.

You give away all control to your apps to corporation. Not even my tech illiterate friends use this thing. Is it that hard to download and install shit from official site?

BS and even if it's not that should be massive red flag for you. Don't download program that is distributed this way. It makes easier to filter good software from garbage.

Any program worth using on Windows in 2024 is installable through winget or scoop.
>>101219629
kys.
>>
>>101219699
scoop never updates your PATH var, it creates shims in ~/scoop/shims
and uses directory junctions to link the latest installed version to "current"

>exe

>update
Just type "pacman -Syu" baka???

I use both the Microsoft Store (for limited apps) and MS Edge (for retarded sites that only test on Chromium)
>>
>not using Winget
I hate the MS store as much as the next person with common sense, but If you're going to be using a blackbox OS you may as well use their package manager.

There's even a nice GUI for it. Also supports chocolatey but there are a lot of things in Winget that aren't in chocolatey
