About the cutesy names: yes, that was probably a mistake. We’ve looked into fixing this but I feel it’s too late to change the terminology now without causing even more confusion.
Glad to hear MacPorts works well for you!
Should you ever decide to come back to Homebrew, we’ll be there for you.
- PascLeRasc 8y agoI'm unaware of all the drama everyone else is referring to and I'd like to remain ignorant, but I really prefer the naming scheme. It's more intuitive to folks like me for whom Homebrew is our first package manager, and it really helped me understand why things are how they are in package managers in general. I appreciate a little whimsey in software.
- Hackbraten 8y agoThanks for the feedback. That’s insightful! In software, I’ve always preferred the more serious tone. No idea why; I love silliness and monkeying around in general.
