I still use windirstat because I hadn't heard of WizTree. How doe Winget compare to chocolatey (https://community.chocolatey.org/)?

* edit: Found a few articles that compare winget to chocolatey (1: Make use of, 2: techcybersec).

tl;dr: They're both really good, but chocolatey is established with a lot more packages and better community support.

WizTree is sooooo much faster than WinDirStat. Give it a try.

I tried using Chocolatey briefly but Winget is already installed and is still pretty dang fast that I have hardly any reason to look for other options.
