Reading those homebrew comment threads convinced me to switch to MacPorts. I don’t care if you’re a volunteer, that’s not how you treat users.

- apple4ever 8y agoI'm heavily leaning that way too. Its a bit of work to switch of course, since I use a decent amount of brew packages.
- Hackbraten 8y agoHomebrew maintainer here. Yes, there have been complaints of poor communication back then, and I feel those complaints were justified. But we’ve also said we’d improve [1] and I feel that the effects already show [2] [3]. We’ve been communicating changes earlier and more clearly lately. We’ve learned a lot from user feedback, and we’re nowhere near the end. Sad to see you go though! Happy to welcome you back anytime.
