Signal is an order of magnitude easier to use than PGP. It's not even close. The GP was comparing two apps that are actually both very easy to use, one maybe slightly moreso. (That said, PGP isn't THAT hard either.)

Just FYI anyone can download XCode from the App Store, it doesn't require a "dev login". (Agree it would be nice if MacPorts only required the XCode Command Line tools like homebrew, it would be one less download.)

Not clear on your meaning. The fact that the two directories have completely different ports inside of them is the reason you want to add both to the PATH. The line I pasted, from my own .bash_profile, is identical to the recommended approa

Macports, meanwhile, continues to work quite well because it 1. places packages in /opt and 2. has always installed via sudo. Macports just has a much more robust philosophy of building its own universe largely separate from OS X, and
