Used to feel this way until I discovered MacPorts. So much faster than brew and prefer it placing everything in /opt and not relying on system binaries. Now I only use homebrew to manage Casks and a few esoteric binaries (really rare).

brew on Apple Silicon Macs also install everything in /opt.

Yup noticed this. Which just reinforces my belief that MacPorts is better designed than homebrew.

well that specific advantage from a design point of view is gone for sure. What other design advantages do you see?
