    @Narwhalrus you can also use winget (built into Win 11) or chocolatey to install most any software package now, similar to apt.

      Yep. I use both quite a bit. Chocolatey is great!

      The point Im trying to make is package managers are better suited for developers and the lack of a great alternative for installing software on the distros I’ve used is not helping with the mass appeal of Linux.

      I could be wrong here as I’ve never tried any of the “home computer” distros (mint, ubuntu).
