So I was told Windows has a “package manager”. I couldn’t resist.
Most people don’t really understand what makes a software repository different from a software “store”.
We should avoid using the term “software store” to refer to software repositories (or “repos”) in GNU/Linux distributions, because it implies that there will be artificial limitations like Windows and Mac.
(How many times you can install it, DRM garbage, fake apps, viruses, nobody reviewing what’s actually in the code before it goes in, etc.) ⬆
