Do you install apps through the Microsoft Store or the software publisher's own installer?

Yep

I avoid the store because it'll randomly forget to update or fail to update whatever "app" and there's no way to force it or delete it manually without it being a dick and a half because it hides all the goddamn shit downloaded from there
or i used to anyway i just use linux lately

>>107007007
In my work computer, I need to have admin permission to install system software so I generally use the store to get anything because it's the only way you can install anything without admin permission.
I don't use windows in my personal computer though in it, I install anything besides system software using the flathub store anyways.

I use the store only if that is the only option. Which is fairly uncommon.
I'd prefer Microsoft take their Store and shove it where they excrete from.
At least I don't really need it 99% of the time, gotta be grateful for that.

I assume most average Janes and Joes do use it, hence it has remained for years now.

I use whatever outdated cracked program I can find online. It gets the job done. I don't need their precious updates

Why would I go all the way to the mall to the Microsoft store when I can just download a program?
>>
>>107007007
I've only ever used to this to install Ubuntu WSL2
>>
>>107007780
You don't even need it for that, you can manage WSL2 and any related installs through Powershell. That's how I see it anyway.
