Are you telling me I'm not just supposed to type sudo apt install ./thing-that-i-wanna-install?

That's basically what I do on Linux anyway except you have to give the install permissions and occasionally to tar -xyzabc and then build something and then add it to your path and then create a shortcut and then give it an icon.
