MacPorts, of course, features an actual .pkg installer, as well as doing pretty much everything else better, and having more packages, and existing first.

MacPorts has existed since 2002 and was invented by Jordan Hubbard, who created the original FreeBSD ports system and was also employed on Apple's UNIX team.

MacPorts was created by the creator of the original FreeBSD ports system who was also an Apple employee. It ought to be everyone's first choice for package management on macOS.

Why not use MacPorts, which currently supports all the way back to Leopard, has far more packages than Homebrew, has a better design, and was created by the creator of the original FreeBSD ports system who also worked on Apple's UNIX t

I care. I refuse to use Electron slop unless it is literally the only option available (usually due to some proprietary locked-in platform eg Discord). I will happily pay significant sums of money for well-made native apps that often have f

All of ffmpeg’s functionality is accessible from C (and transitively most other programming languages) via libavformat, libavcodec etc. FFmpeg supporting WebRTC means that projects using these libraries gain support for WebRTC in code.

Yes, pretty much every bit of ffmpeg can be enabled or disabled when compiling.
