I don't get it. Just let me click to run the installer. Fucking hippies

>stand alone installer
A really REALLY retarded idea even Microsoft knows was impractical and questionable as fuck.

Streamlined software management (like linux has since the dawn of time) was always the answer.

This is just an archive like a zip.

you should only be playing with one of those if you're downloading source code and compiling it yourself, which is for schizos or people doing cutting edge shit
for some boomer like you, you'd use a package manager, which is even easier than a click-to-run installer
even windows has a package manager now, `winget`

why do I need 4 arguments to extract my files? Just make that the default behaviour, or have an argument that does all of them in one. Retarded ass devs.

I preferred portable software on Windows. Are there actually people out there that, for example download the installer version of Rufus over the portable version?

You can't reason with retards

If you're going to be working with source code at all for any serious period of time you're going to remember `tar xvfz` like the back of your hand after doing it like 10 times. Same with `./configure && make && make install`. If you're too braindead to memorize like three commands just stick to scrolling TikTok all day
>>
>>107652365
But why. Just make it the default behaviour. Besides, like lots of people, I don't. So the two times a year when I need something that's only available in a tarball I need to go look it up. Either way it's bad design. "Just remember it because lmao" isn't a good defence.
