I didn't even know Homebrew ran on Linux. Why do you choose Homebrew for your Linux distro instead of its default package manager?

- maleldil 3y agoMore recent packages, for one. I need to use Ubuntu 20.04 for work, and it's easier to get the latest versions I want from linuxbrew than from apt. E.g. clang is on 10.0 from apt and 16.0 from brew. Similarly, fish is 3.1.0 vs 3.6.1.
