Does anyone even care about Windows Apps at this point?
Yeah, I use Windows LTSC which doesn’t even have the App Store, and to date I have missed it 0 times
I was pretty pumped back when they announced the app store. I thought it was going to be more like a linux repo, but with optional paid items. I wanted a one-stop-shop for updating my computer.
Then it turned out it didn't support desktop apps (for a very long time) and had none of the advantages a linux repo has. Used it once, and realized I had already wasted too much of my life on it.
