Omnisharp import completion doesn't work.
I use scoop, and needed to install this separately from the versions bucket here: (https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Versions/blob/master/bucket/omnisharp-net6.json).
- Stupid Fast Scoop Search v1.0

WinGet is terrible. I want AppGet back
Scoop is maintained, but just... really slowly. It's a shame. For example it took more than a month and two maintainer pings to merge an absolutely trivial PR to add Python 3.8 (a single character change over the Python 3.7 manifest): https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Versions/pull/226
For the most part, this does not matter. Most of the existing stuff is already present in buckets and auto-updated by CI. The problem is just when something breaks or something new needs to be added, which can take a non-deterministic amount of time.

WinGet is terrible. I want AppGet back
Ash258 is not one of the official maintainers, but he's a very active member of the community (more active than the actual maintainers), commenting on most PRs to official buckets and maintaining his own bucket https://github.com/Ash258/Scoop-Ash258 as well as a Scoop fork https://github.com/Ash258/Scoop-Ash258 with many improvements and issue fixes over the upstream. He also mods the Scoop Discord server.
However, his comments are often harsh, like you noticed. He's mostly on-point, but is very quick to rudely shoot down anything he disagrees with. Also he bans discussing or even mentioning his fork of Scoop on the Discord server, which is super weird since he put it publicly on GitHub in the first place.
