It's got a different philosophy, but I've had a nice time with scoop

The difference is that it (largely) stays confined within a directory without even needing elevated privileges and such for installs (which brings peace of mind for community installs). Repository is more centralized and automated too it seems.

Not perfect in a few edge cases, like other programs expecting a certain install location. Overall enormous time saver.
