I've just recently switched from Homebrew to MacPorts on OSX, after using Homebrew for as long as I can remember. I got sick of having to wait several minutes for homebrew to crank into action and check for updates every time I fired it up and also the fact that they've been actively deprecating older versions of OSX. [Im still happily using Mojave on my antiquated laptop and desktop]. Then there were the build times which, in some cases, would take hours and leave my laptop hot enough to fry eggs on. Since switching to MacPorts [fingers crossed!] I've had no problems so far; It checks for updates much quicker. It never has problems finding versions of software which will run on Mojave [and it doesn't keep warning me that I'm "on my own" for running an older version of OSX!]. Install times are much faster, as MacPorts favours pre-built binaries. The only issues I've had so far have been a few obscure edge cases, such as VSCodium plugins where they've stopped working and I've needed to update the binaries they're configured to point to, away from /usr/local/bin/ [Homebrew] to /opt/local/bin/ [MacPorts]. I could [in the past] see the need for Homebrew on OSX. But I certainly don't have any intention of letting it anywhere near any of my Linux boxes. Especially as they already have decent package management built in.
