Anyone running Intel macbook because Homebrew dropped support for them because Apple dropped support for them. You can still use Homebrew but it means rebuilding from source. I downloaded uv recently and it took about 8 hours to fully install because it had to build llvm, uv, some other stuff all from source.

Intel Mac users. I recently installed MacPorts for the first time after Homebrew dropped support.

Heaps of us. I'd been using it for years before Homebrew even existed and I never felt that any of the problems that Homebrew purported to solve were real.

I know, it always makes my jaw drop when I realize that it’s still a significant number of people, since I remember it being a thing I used circa 2005. I don’t think git was even a thing back then.
