    > Homebrew is old and it needs to be replaced. It has served its time.

    You are more than welcome to build your own alternative. Homebrew is open source and volunteer run. I'm sure there is a very valid reason requests like this get shot down.

    No wonder open source maintainers hate dealing with people like you.

    Regarding GUI applications: you're probably talking about the Nixpkgs repository, rather than the Nix tool itself.

    I use the following Nix function to install GUI applications https://github.com/cmacrae/.nixpkgs/blob/d4b51eb414b0edaffae...

    It doesn't work for everything, but I use it at the moment for Amethyst, DBeaver, DockerDesktop, Emacs, Firefox, iTerm2, Postman, Slack and VNCViewer.
