If you use miniforge (https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge) you can just 'pip install torch' and it works.

I think you mean “conda install torch”, no? Miniforge would only impact the conda installer?

Surprisingly, no. I just tried it:

- 'pip install torch' doesn't work inside of a plain Python env (not miniforge)

- 'conda install torch' doesn't work inside miniforge

- 'pip install torch' works inside miniforge

Huh! That’s curious! I wonder what causes the different behaviour!

What's different about miniforge in this regard? Does miniforge come with additional package indexes pre-configured?

Pretty much. Conda installed with miniforge uses a different channel, with a focus on having packages available for more architectures.
