Firefox is the 45th result when searching for “Firefox” on Windows Store

Not for me on Windows 11: https://i.judge.sh/teeming/Glimglam/ApplicationFrameHost_s8q...

Try searching for stuff by name in Apple's iOS app store. I'd say it's a joke, but it's not funny that they're fucking developers over. Apple replaces exact search terms that have matches in the store with other terms. So even if you know the name of the vendor whose app you're searching for and type it in correctly, Apple can and will bury (or not return at all) the result. Disgraceful, and Apple has lied about what "objective criteria" it's using... and has pledged in court to continue this scam.

As an user, I look at the search results to evaluate the quality of an app store.

Microsoft needs to change this problem. Many trash and scam apps are on Microsoft Store for years. User and even developer do not want to download and push their apps in a place like this.

In all fairness, it's also the second result when I search for it from the Arch repositories :p
