What's Wrong?
Subj.
Stop vibe coding so much and start using brain.
Installer downloads many hundreds of megabytes of whatever.
It may take hours or even days on some slow connections.
99% of usa will have to stare at blank nothing for 20-40 minutes.
What Should Happen?
Show something, a progress bar or just how many bytes are here and how many pending
