    This highlights how [1] compiling on windows and configuring a compiler and settings is a PITA and [2] Windows has no package manager.

    Yes, yes, we understand. Maybe cry and beg daddy Windows harder and maybe they will be kind enough to condescend… I mean probably not.

    Maybe if he White Knights and SIMPs harder Sempai will notice him.

      This used to be true but not anymore

      Winget is still pretty young but very functional. And WingetUI is wonderful

      And Chocolatey has been around for a long time as an unofficial Windows package manager

        Yeah winget has some issues, but I regularly use it to just update everything it can recognize.

          Yup! Especially now that there is WingetUI I always check there first when I want to install something new
