    I'm not sure how Microsoft has botched the concept of an app store so badly. I've never had issues like this with any of the competing app stores (including the macOS one, so it's not like the fact that it's a desktop operating system necessitates these kinds of issues).

    I'm not saying the Mac App Store is a paragon of usability, but it does work. And you know what else it lets you do? Find apps in Finder and treat them just like any other files.

    I think Microsoft over-engineered the hell out of this and needs to go back to the drawing board.

    I think the platform and impementation are sound it’s just that it is very poorly tested and polished compared to Apple’s products. This is the sense from what I have read about software dev teams in both companies.
