Maybe I’m and oddball, but I download third party package managers (or wrappers) on literally every OS I use.
Scoop, Chocolatey on Windows.
Brew on MacOS.
Amethyst on Arch.
Linux package managers eviscerate whatever is available on MacOS and Windows by a long shot.
Frankly if there’s one thing I want my OSes (excluding Linux) to keep their greasy paws off of, it would be my CLI and build environments.
I want to install and manage what I need, not be force fed whatever sludge comes out of Microsoft’s or Apple’s tainted teats. Manage and update the OS, don’t touch anything else.
- wubrr 3y agoLinux and MacOS package management is very different, because linux distros generally have first-class supported package management that comes with the OS. > I want to install and manage what I need Good luck installing what you need if someone hasn't made a port explicitly for macos.
