I've been using Windows as dev platform since it was called "DOS but don't look too closely", I know chocolatey, ninite, winget, and powershell's own built-in nonsense, and yet had never head of scoop until just now. So... that really just tells us that any application manager we think is popular, ubiquitous, and the obvious choice is still really just a niche program =(

Contrast that to brew on MacOS: ever non-devs know about brew.

And from all of those, which I'd heard of, I think scoop is the only one to allow a package author to just create a git repo, and publish a package that way.

Like brew does. That why I use scoop.

Chocolatey would rather charge money for that, for some reason, and people are still willing to donate them their free time.

Nice!
