Open Edge? ewwwww.
Open windows to do
winget install Mozilla.Firefox? Ewww.sudo apt install firefoxFirefox is already the latest versionWhere's the one-liner for UEFI shell to install arch?
I didn't a understand a word of what u said lol
It’s for the best. They use Arch.
Shhh!... Just keep walking and don't look at them, they'll ignore you if you're lucky.
They use arch Linux
winget? ewwww.
Open up the GUI package manager, look for Firefox, type in my password.
If you don’t like command line interfaces, you could try UniGetUI (formerly WingetUI) which is an open source aggregator for multiple package management ecosystems.
Last I checked it included winget, chocolatey, direct-from-GitHub releases, and a lot of developer-oriented solutions like NuGet, pip, pyenv, nvm, npm, rvm, and the like.
If you must use Windows for something, at least you can avoid using Microsoft Store and Edge. And if you have the inclination, you can use that list of installations with an AME Wizard playbook to rapidly provision a Windows machine (virtual or otherwise) which makes the all but inevitable “format-and-reinstall” task painless.
TLDR: you can just use it as an automated installer, kind of like Ninite from back in the day, but it can do a lot more than that. Actually kind of jealous this sort of universal aggregator doesn’t exist in unix systems yet.
It's not about CLI versus GUI. I'm referring to installing it on Linux because Windows is a heaping pile of shit.
Oh got it. Sorry thought you were a Windows user and wanted to help where you were at.
And agreed. Every time I’m forced to use that OS I experience less and less nostalgia and more incredulous disgust.
