You forgot RPM

[–] SchrodingersPat@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're right. I did.

zypper
and portage

Dnf is just updated yum, and both are backed by rpm

As someone who has to administer several hundred Windows servers and several thousand Windows workstations in our fleet (alongside our Linux and Mac systems), I was very sad that winget was not as good as I had hoped for. Chocolatey is still far better IMO, and neither is anywhere near as good as apt, rpm, etc.

I don't use neither arch nor void, but I have to leave this unpopular(?) opinion out somewhere: xbps is a million times better than pacman simply for tracking dll dependencies.

Zypper

WingetUI handles winget, chocolatey and scoop. Nice little project for casual Windows users.

choco

[–] selawdivad@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Don't forget apk! It's FAST!

Which category would you put scoop in? I like it and use it regularly on windows, I find it much better than choco. No experience with Winget

[–] SchrodingersPat@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I don't have any experience with scoop, but if you like it that's great. I don't want to yuck anyone's yum.

Don't you dare put nix together with these fossils of package management.
