I wish there was a right click install button for deb files (programming.dev)

I know it's not that hard $ dpkg -i but opening the terminal gives normies an aneurysm and thanks to the crazy gatekeeping gen alpha doesn't know what a file type is now.

I use Ubuntu btw. Personally, the App store's on Linux confused me a ton, setting up Flatpak and some other package repositories. I much preferred the windows way, shocker, with just downloading and double-click the exe file.

Do I have to make a pull request myself to get this done, or what is the debate on this?

Yay, new Cult Member! 😄🎉

But seriously, awesome, have fun with it! Feel free to comment/message me if questions come up, but beside that, I have to mention that the NixOS forums are very active and friendly!

(And I actually did type that out yesterday, but I'll definitely be copy-pasting it going forward 😄)
