#25With so many other package managers available, I often wish something else was the de facto package manager on macOS. Something like pkgsrc, which follows conventions much better and is thereby much easier to manage.
This is the pkgsrc-based package manager I use on macOS. It's simple and has the packages I need.

I've been using MacPorts for as long as I've wanted a macOS package manager, and it's been working very well for me.
Yeah, I switched from Homebrew to MacPorts a few years ago and couldn't be happier.
