Brew is so full of Linux/OSS/GNU anti-patterns that I can't wrap my head how did it ever managed to receive so much adoption. I guess macOS people are way more ignorant about things that made Linux/OSS what it is.
It doesn't help that the project authors shut down any conversation about flaws.
They're so convinced that their way is right and essentially stick their fingers in their ears when anyone raises concerns.
Unfortunately cargo culting is a thing.
I say this as a macOS user.
Fortunately alternatives like MacPorts exist.
Can you give some examples?
