Edge? Is that the app I used to install LibreWolf?

I don't think I'll ever consensually use Windows ever again.

I do quite bit of windows installs. I usually use edge once, to either set up chocolate or use ninite, and download sane stuff. Then I hide edge as much as possible.

winget install Mozilla.Firefox

No need to use edge at all.

Never thought of using winget. Ninite or chocolatey work well enough, but yeah, nice.

My Linux Distro came with Firefox preinstalled, so I never had to use Edge either :)
