    I agree quite a bit. One thing to note is ever since the m1-3 chips and breakage with brew, my local circle is going other machines. I know brew eventually fixed things but some packages never got updated/broke permanently.

      i haven’t personally had trouble with that since early 2023, but it depends on your dependencies

        Yeah it’s much better now. Things have mostly settled. It was more of a knee jerk reaction tbh. But it did get more people interested/exposed to Linux for dev machines. Which I think is good for the long run.

        We need good options as devs. Mac/Linux are still my gotos for that reason.
