The problem with apt-get for my use case is that most packages are outdated. If I need to install the latest version of a package I have to Google for instructions which is quite annoying. e.g. these are the steps to install Node.js:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties python g++ make
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
