I like that you actually can ls in power shell now

[-] TheChefSLC@lemmy.sdf.org 61 points 1 year ago

Yes, yes you can.

Also, WSL and windows terminal go a very long way in making windows actually usable...

"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

You damn spoiled kids with your blue jeans and your rock and roll music and your auto complete!

Just add Winget with an UI to have a proper package manager and we're in

[-] DJArbz@lemmy.notmy.cloud 16 points 1 year ago

Package manager with a UI? I like my apt and dnf thank you very much.

[-] csolisr@communities.azkware.net 7 points 1 year ago

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.

I've just been using scoop for many years and I haven't felt the need to switch
