Yes, yes you can.
Also, WSL and windows terminal go a very long way in making windows actually usable…
Just add Winget with an UI to have a proper package manager and we’re in
I’ve just been using scoop for many years and I haven’t felt the need to switch
Package manager with a UI? I like my apt and dnf thank you very much.
I use pacman btw
You can still use winget by itself from the command line! The UI is just there for convenience and automation
The UI is just there for … automation
Wut?
I’ve never gone to a UI when I want to automate something, a sane CLI is much more predictable and consistent.
Winget-UI specifically can run the upgrade tool automatically for you, that’s what I meant for “automation”. You could also add a scheduler to run Winget by itself every day if you need to.
It annoys me to no end that winget is a consumer only thing and not for the enterprise. It would be so useful in the enterprise….
“Usable” is a strong statement… It went from a “misery inducing insufferable machine” to a “extremely big annoyance”. I do concede it is anyway a progress
