Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Is scoop better than chocolatey?

    [–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 9 months ago (3 children)

    i have both but i do prefer scoop over chocolatey since it's a bit simpler to use. it's also more like homebrew.

    winget-ui will pull from chocolatey and scoop and winget, though.

    Way more stable and reliable. It just doesn't install programs normally (installed programs won't show up under add and remove)

    I've been using gsudo for that for a while, but it's nice to have native options.

    At this point just release a new Linux distro and call it "Windows for Developers" or something.

    Didn’t Microsoft try to patent sudo a few years back?

    If my crystal ball is correct, Windows will be Linux in 10 years.
