      Yeah that’s my only real complaint about Linux. I miss the ease of just downloading an exe and double clicking it

          You can also download and double click executables that have no dependencies (like Pocketbase). The installation process handles resolving dependencies.

        Ironically I liked Chocolatey package manager on Windows. Hitting update and everything just updates is great. I hate launching a program and it’s like “here’s an update you need to do before using this and if you kick it down the road you’ll forget about it till next time you launch me”
