Good eye. I would not have noticed if the terms changed，even with all of those articles. Is there a good replacement?

micromamba + conda-forge does the job really well. All open source and community supported, and none of the licensing drama.

In my experience uv (haven't tried astral) doesn't quite fill the same niche, especially if compiled packages from other languages are necessary for your workflow (libboost for example)
