You’d be forced to use Apple’s App-Store, though? I don’t think there is an other package manager

- Zambyte 1y agoAs far as system package managers go, yeah. That's part of the price you pay for choosing Apple (Knows Best) TM. There is brew, nix and the like for applications on MacOS too though.
- madeofpalk 1y agoApple doesn't "know best" - it's just that that is what the system package manager is. You can use whatever you want outside of the App Store - most will use Sparkle to handle updates https://sparkle-project.org/ https://sparkle-project.org/. I presume Windows is similar.
- Zambyte 1y ago> Apple doesn't "know best" - it's just that that is what the system package manager is. The fact that that is what the system package manager is is why I said Apple "knows best". You can pick from dozens of system packages managers hooked up to hundreds, if not thousands of different repos on Linux.
