Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

TIL Windows can install apps with just command prompts using winget

Ang tagal ko na gumagamit ng Windows, ngayon ko lang nalaman. lol

It's default software on Windows 10/Windows 11 22H2. I started using it once they made it available on Github a couple years back and it's pretty neat. You can upgrade your apps with just winget upgrade --all, search if an app is available on their pseudo-repository with winget search . You can also export/import a list of your installed applications if you say, want to make an easy migration from system to another.

This is pretty neat. Probably a safer and secure way to install applications, just like I initially did with Linux Mint earlier this year.

Only difference though is that the installers for software not on the MS Store are pulled from their respective sites. So there may still be a small risk if the site hosting the installer has been compromised.

Anyway, with this method, we can guarantee that we are installing apps from official source.
