fwupdmgr is amazing.

It’s like a package-manager for system firmware. For the devices supported, it feels infinitely better than downloading random files from the various vendor-sites on the internet and running setup wizards and all kinds of bloated inconsistent nonsense.

I’d argue fwupdmgr actually represents something objectively done better on Linux than Windows, and my only complaint overall is that not enough vendors are supporting it.
