Sorry we couldn’t support this for longer :(

From the release notes:

> The Intel support decision reflects the limits of a volunteer-run project: Apple have dropped Intel x86_64 support from macOS 27 Golden Gate and GitHub Actions will retire Intel macOS runners in autumn 2027. If Apple and Microsoft’s GitHub, two of the world’s largest technology companies, cannot continue supporting macOS Intel x86_64, sadly neither can Homebrew. MacPorts still supports macOS Intel x86_64 and is likely to provide better results on this platform.

We've all gone through it :-( Happy users of the (really good) software until our hardware gets "too old" and the inevitable rug pull.

MacPorts is still there for us.

Same boat: 2018 Intel Mac mini, stuck on macOS 10.15.

When I eventually upgrade my hardware, I’ll happily use Homebrew again. In the meantime, MacPorts!
