I used Homebrew back when it wouldn’t work without chowning /usr/local/bin. I’m not sure if that is still a requirement, but it did leave a bitter after taste.

I used Homebrew back when it wouldn’t work without chowning /usr/local/bin. I’m not sure if that is still a requirement, but it did leave a bitter after taste. Beside that, I like to install packages from their canonical source. That could mean installing Go from golang.org to MariaDB from mariadb.org. It’s simple to compare sha256 checksums, which I suspect is also possible with Homebrew, I just don’t know how.
