You can make the command smaller:
irm https://massgrave.dev/get | iex
Just sayin

@Mukul1127, it's not generally a good idea to use aliases, though. They're fragile, since if anything in $PATH overrides them, you'll be calling another command, and they're frequently deprecated without much grace period. They're not even consistent across editions of PowerShell (like Core). Better to expand them to their commandlets.

I am afraid you're a bit late to the party (This change was made years ago!).
We haven't seen any users report issues with the shortened aliases rather than using the expanded commandlets, so your concerns have ended up not being an issue, thank you for the feedback though

Hm, I didn't know that, maybe we could add a note to the docs using iwr -useb. I believe irm works in all versions of PowerShell though and I don't know of any tool using that name.
