Tin foil hat here. The person posting this is the lead maintainer of Chocolatey, a long standing 3rd party Windows package manager.
Although the point is reasonable (why NOT just provide an opt out, like .NET SDK?), it seems to me that there is a potential ulterior motive in dragging down winget.
- ocdtrekkie 6y agoProbably because the .NET SDK is a separate program, and winget is being slipped into a default component app of Windows 10. I am irritated about Windows 10's telemetry policy, but it makes sense for component applications to obey the system telemetry configuration rather than each one having their own settings.
- driverdan 6y agoI downvoted you because motive doesn't matter, the facts stand alone.
