i like how smartphones looked at the concept of package managers, which are (imo) the best way of installing software, and proceeded to fuck it up royally with app stores
@lynnesbian my Chromebook has access to:

- Google Play Store
- apt
without installing a single third party program
@ben sounds like they've really turned it around from how crappy it used to be
@lynnesbian programs installed via apt still can't use GPU acceleration or audio but that's still miles ahead of where LXSS is.
@lynnesbian the windows package manager is chocolatey :'')

@lynnesbian i wish package managers were commonplace and good with no ironic twist caused by this monkey's paw
@lynnesbian when's someone going to base a web design on soviet cockpit green
@lynnesbian so does lynnes profile pic
@lynnesbian why "fucked it up"?
@rugk i left a reply to someone else's comment about this but tldr: no repos, no encouragement to make apps FLOSS, no resistance against advertisements, entry fee and (in apple's case) a yearly fee...
