Ask HN: Best Alternative to Homebrew in 2021?
> 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.

Ask HN: Best Alternative to Homebrew in 2021?
> If I just wanted to install google-chrome, sublime, and skype, I would use the app store.
None of those is available on the Mac App Store. I don’t understand the argument you’re trying to make.
> In contrast to how it used to be, Homebrew now seems designed for people that only want popular bleeding edge packages, and nobody else.
Homebrew Cask—which is what you’re referring to in the reminder of that paragraph—has always been focused on the latest versions of packages. The versions repo[1] is secondary with stricter rules for acceptance.
