I think the overall quality level on Macs is leagues above anyone else, even the UNIX stuff (I personally prefer the BSD utils to the GNU ones, which pretty much anyone else running POSIX stuff is using unless they’re daily-driving an actual BSD.
I just don’t get why Apple would hire Jordan Hubbard for their UNIX team, see him implement a very well thought out version of the standard package manager of all time that he also wrote, and then decide to use brew as their blessed package manager for their various open source releases, .systemLibrary in Swift packages, etc.
