I only speak from trying to use it as a package manager, it’s reliant on people making custom silent install scripts and updating packages correctly. I had some apps that didn’t have their version updated in some file so it always reported being out of date to Winget so it was always downloading and reinstalling. Just janky primarily with third party apps.
But winget is still somewhat hacky, this would make use of the actual system updates system and be opt in for better integration
Is it? I’ve never actually bothered to look under the hood. I’ll have to give it a peek some time.
