Yes, the Windows store is crap, but it is still miles ahead of running random .exe installers.

And the Ubuntu store is like the worst possible example you could find ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Just any normal distribution repository from for example Debian or Fedora works great. And Gnome and KDE have very easy to use GUI interfaces for these and ideally Flathub is also integrated. Super easy and seamless, no joke at all.

We'll have to agree to disagree on executables, I love them, would choose them every time over any app from the store, in fact I have zero apps from the store. I tried other stores on Ubuntu but they weren't really better, just their own limited collections, I still ended up having to hunt down stuff and even use CLI.
