Idk if this has been talked about, tried searching this and couldn’t find a post talking about this but it’s a nice feature

If you ever come across a utility or application you want to install and it has a .rpm file, you can copy the link of the .rpm file and install it using dnf directly instead of downloading it first and installing it later

For example

sudo dnf install https://github.com/Martichou/rquickshare/releases/download/v0.11.5/r-quick-share-main_v0.11.5_glibc-2.39_1-x86_64.rpm

This will download and install the application directly without doing it separately

It should work

Another example

sudo dnf install https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/9/mongodb-org/8.0/x86_64/RPMS/mongodb-org-server-8.0.12-1.el9.x86_64.rpm
