What alternative do you then propose for "I'd like to install this random application which isn't popular/high quality enough to be included in the main repository"? Everyone figures it out from scratch by copy pasting bash commands from stackoverflow or maybe chatGPT these days?

Or they just install it via random bash scripts on GitHub but that's just pushing the problem into the user.

It's been a while since I've seen software that provides an INSTALL.sh.

Namespace every package, so you install "somebody/thing" instead of just "thing"
