What do you think of it, user?
I reinstalled windows and gave it a try and it's fucking great! All my software were there!

Cooper Johnson
it's shit, still better than having no package manager
Benjamin Gutierrez
I rather use ninite

Why not try the Windows 10 Store, user?
Sebastian Richardson
Jow Forums fags will mindlessly hate anything windows. Chocolatey makes the experience a bit more useful.

Dunno about chocolatey, but I'm running scoop for two years on my windows VMs now and for what it does, it works fine.
Grayson Taylor
unlike distribution repositories you can't trust Chocolatey's.
Jace Richardson
Why?
Colton Sanchez
It's a pale facsimile of any Linux package manager, but I guess it's better than having nothing
Joseph Hall
gui is laggy shit
search function on cli sucks ass
I mean seriously you can either wait an unreasonable amount of time using the gui or you can use the cli but, you have to google the exact fucking package name chocolatey uses
Logan Davis
works for me
maybe you are just a retard
Jaxson Barnes
you're screenshot only proves that you knew the exact package name and version number. the search/install function returns only exact matches
Christian Myers
Wrong screenshot
Joseph Thomas
odd, I could only get it to return exact matches when I tried it
Jack Walker
Pretty cool, used it to install chromium and I felt right at home.
Jackson Gomez
Not up to the heights of Linux package managers but still loads better than installing stuff from the internet. Since most of the Windows software I use, bar propietary IDEs is free (as in freedom and/or price) I can install nearly all of them with a single line. Replaced Ninite for me in clean installs.
Jaxon Baker
I looked into it hoping that it would have installers for all those projects that don't offer a fucking release/binary/whatever. I was uninpressed. Also it seems entries can't be edited and updated so they have to make a new entry for a new version?
Caleb Roberts
Is it shit garbage like brew where it chowns /usr/local/bin (windows/system32 on windows?) as the current user, completely breaking your OS if you have multiple users?

>/usr/local/bin
>anything like system32
