The good news is that MacPorts is IMO better than ever. I previously did the MacPorts -> Homebrew switch, but recently moved back and am very happy with MacPorts.

I never moved to Homebrew, and never understood the appeal. It’s refreshing to see people coming back to MacPorts after the last decade.

If you ever try to install any packages from GH or an indie, you only get brew install/cask instructions. It's game over.

Regarding the appeal, this probably exists in Mac Ports, I do not know since you guys reminded me it still existed, but Brewfile lets me provision a new Mac very efficiently.
