windows now has a package manager.
how can other operating systems even compete?

>now
It's been around for a while and it's still shit.

>windows now has a package manager.

you're 5 years late

>using chocolatey
>instead of the default package manager
Why? It's shipped by default in Windows 10.

>how can other operating systems even compete?
Now that you can use Linux-compiled binaries on Windows through the WSL, they can't.

windows had powershell for years, and now has bash, is that thing better than bash?

Just like Maki.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Remember how IBM fell. "A better windows than windows". Supporting their primary competition was their downfall.

Can't wait to see this exploited.

Doesn't matter until msft consider it first class infra like distros do. And that's not happened in the five years it's been around so far, so don't expect it to happen ever.

>windows now has a package manager.

Windows already has a package manager

Linux needs a package manager to handle configuration. Windows does not outside of the specific professional applications where one is already in use

Fuck you bih

>>windows has no concept of /usr/local/bin

yes it does

Wondows has no / are you dense?

>muh compatibility layer
Windows will never be good. Your rationalizations are pathetic.

it has equivalents like AppData

>"y-yes it does"
>posts no proof
>can't because it doesn't exist

>it has equivalents like AppData
>specific for the user him/herself, not globally
The point of using /usr/local/bin is to install programs that don't touch vendor components, not for "muh personal program"

>no gui
dropped

AppData is tied to the local account

MSYS2 is better than chocolatey

anyway, the rest of your points are bullshit too. I mean, if you think Windows is shit, that's fine, but don't come off as an ignorant retard and expect to be taken seriously!

Is this better or worse than something like Ninite?

Try it and find out for yourself

Dont relat on other peoples opinions
