Is it bad to be user friendly and more centralized?
Apple's "installers" literally copy shit to the hard disk and create a mess of folders
>>107729576>>AppImagethat's literally the equivalent of .dmg you dipshit.
>>107729625Not the same thing, also not used by majority of pop. linux distros.
>literally asking chatgpt in real timemy nigga why are you even on this board let alone making thread if you don't even know those basic shit?
Izzat farming thread DNI
>>107729576you missed the part in which you spend 5 minutes opening Safari then going to the developer's website to get the DMG file then fooling in the System Settings to allow applications from outside the app store to be ran and installed.
>>107729576
>>107729576Forgot homebrew and npm at least.
>why can these multiple operating systems I listed not use the same system as this other operating system I selected arbitrarily?You're right, that's why Apple computers should use dpkg. After all, having 1 unified system would be ideal instead of having to learn a million.>also implying you can't compile from source or install python pip packages on Mac OS
>>107729576>>107731387Literally nobody use anything that goes beyond than appimage or flatpak, unless it is an old app>>107731852>also implying you can't compile from sourceNormies will never do it, aka the target audience for Apple products
>>107731410and Macportsand macos .pkg installers which are functionally the same to .msi installers
use the gui package manager that came with your distro
>>107729576Flatpak is that, dumbfuck. Plus with app store guis you don't have to learn anything, they work the same. Tgis is a made-up problem.
>>107729675its distro agnostic, dumbo
