I'm not able to find this answer in old posts. Can we install games from the Microsoft store? I just claimed a free copy of Fallout 76 on PC from Prime Gaming and the MS store is telling me I need the XBOX app which sounds really weird to me.

To be fair, except for GOG, none of the games bought on digital stores are ever really yours. See the recent debacle about The Crew.

Yeah i hate that, since when those mf call the shots? Screw them, if buying is not owning, piracy is not stealing(never was to begin with).
